Reaction conditions: Cyclobutanone 4c (0.025 mmol, 1.0 equiv), catalyst (10 mol%), and H2O2 (30% w/w aq. 1.5 equiv) at 0 → 4 °C (ambient temperature) with [4c] = 0.10 M CHCl3.
Conversion determined by 1H NMR relative integrations and enantiomeric ratios determined by CSP-HPLC analysis (Chiralpak IA, 230 nm).
Reported results are the average of two trials.
