Abstract
The first asymmetric oxidation of ester and amide lithium enolates 5 to optically active a-hydroxy carbonyl compounds 6 is reported using new, easily prepared, stable (camphorylsulfonyl)oxaziridines (+)-(2R,8aS)-3 and (-)-(2S,8aR)-4. Either enantiomer of 6 can be readily obtained because the configuration of the oxaziridine three-membered ring determines the product stereochemistry. © 1986, American Chemical Society.
