45. Allylic oxidation reactions with cyclic alkenes were performed by forming the copper(I) hexafluorophosphate-bisoxazoline complex (Kubas, G. J.; Monzyk, B.; Crumbliss, A. L. Inorg. Synth. 1990, 28, 68) (15 mol %) in degassed acetonitrile (0.2 M) at room temperature and adding 5 equiv of olefin followed by perester (1 equiv) at -20 °C (Tables 1 and 2). The reactions were monitored by TLC for consumption of perester and stopped at the given time. The yields are for isolated materials based on the perester, and the selectivities were determined by chiral HPLC with comparison to racemic material. The ligands were recovered, 85% yield based on the amount used and recycled with comparable results. In all cases the S,S-ligands generated (S)-ester product. Levorotatory allyl alcohols were produced upon hydrolysis (KOH) of the S-enriched benzoate esters. (a) Wahhab, A.; Tavares, D. F.; Rauk, A. Can. J. Chem. 1990, 68, 1559.
