✦ Synopsis

The Diastereoselective Epoxidation of Olefins in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide.

-Under the optimized conditions shown, the title reactions can be carried out in a clean and selective manner. The use of non-toxic supercritical CO 2 in the presence of the new epoxidation vanadium catalyst leads to yields and diastereoselectivities that are comparable to those in environmentally hazardous solvents such as CH 2
