Abstract

(R, R)-Zr(salen) complex was found to serve as an efficient catalyst for asymmetric Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of pro-chiral and racemic ketones using urea·hydrogen peroxide as the terminal oxidant: for example, high enantioselectivity of 87% ee was achieved in the Baeyer-Villiger reaction of 3-phenylcyclobutanone.
