29. The asymmetric oxidation of prochiral sulfides presents the opportunity of coupling the initial asymmetric synthesis with a kinetic resolution. While the kinetic resolution of racemic 7a using the Modena protocol (Table 1, entry 8; 30% conversion. 17% ee) revealed a small kinetic preference (s = 3), the results in Table 1 indicate that the enantioselectivity occurred predominantly via the initial asymmetric synthesis.
