40. Differently substituted oxazolidinones can be used in this process. It was found that tBu substitution often results in slightly improved ee values relative to those obtained with a iPr group. Phenyl and Benzyl substitution also result in high selectivities, however, these substituents are not inert under reaction conditions, resulting in the formation of reduced oxazolidinones.
