(Chemical Equation Presented) "Iron(II) salt + 4,4′,4″- trichloro-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine" is an effective catalyst for epoxidation and aziridination of alkenes and intramolecular amidation of sulfamate esters. The epoxidation of allylic-substituted cycloalkenes achieved excellent diastereoselectivities up to 90%. ESI-MS results supported the formation of iron-oxo and -imido intermediates. Derivitization of Cl3terpy to O-PEG-OCH3-Cl2terpy renders the terpyridine unit to be recyclable, and the "iron(II) salt + 4,4″-dichloro-4′-O-PEG-OCH3-2,2′:6′,2″- terpyridine" protocol can be reused without a significant loss of catalytic activity in the alkene epoxidation.

An easy and high yielding transformation of epoxyketones and phenyl substituted epoxides to trans olefins in a convergent diastereoselective process is reported. The method was applied to the selective C-25 hydroxy- functionalisation of 3-keio-Δ4-cholestan-3-one, a key intermediate for the synthesis of C-25 hydroxy vitamin D3. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
