86. In the conversion of CP1 to CP2 via TS, the alkene group of 3i is attacked mainly by the oxo group of intermediate A. An alternative pathway is the initial attack of the alkene group mainly by the hydroxo group of A, but this pathway was found to have a higher barrier (for more detail, see Figure S15 in the Supporting Information).
87. 2 = 4.63), rendering it hard to obtain an accurate energy of TS2 by the theoretical method (B3LYP) employed in our study (the calculated free energy of TS2 is lower by 4.2 kcal/mol than that of CP2 due to the underestimation of TS2 energy resulting from spin contamination). For this reason, TS2 is not shown in Figure 3. The calculated structure of this transition state is depicted in Figure S14 in the Supporting Information.
88. 3 used in the reaction). Upon increasing pH from 7 to 8-9, a decrease in the efficiency of cis-dihydroxylation was found (substrate conversion: from 89% to 60%, yield of cis-diol I: from 44% to 25%, yield of epoxide: from 19% to 22%). We noted that 1 became significantly less stable at pH 8-9.
