Organocatalytic Asymmetric Epoxidation and Aziridination of Olefins and Their Synthetic Applications

“…A variety of structurally diverse ketone catalysts have been investigated and reported by a number of laboratories. A wide range of olefins, particularly unfunctionalized trans -olefins and trisubstituted olefins, have been effectively epoxidized with high enantioselectivity …”
