Recent advances in enantioselective metal-catalyzed oxidations are presented. Two transformations are discussed in detail: (a) asymmetric Baeyer-Villiger reactions of racemic and prochiral cyclic ketones giving optically active lactones, and (b) sulfide oxidations affording enantiomerically enriched

In connection with the zirconium alkoxide-catalyzed oxidation of primary aromatic [2] and aliphatic [3] amines to nitro compounds, we also investigated the reaction of secondary N-aryl-N-alkyl amines with the system Zr(O-t-Bu) 4 /tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). Surprisingly, and in contrast to most
