Published: October 2002

[formula: see text] The kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides via catalytic enantioselective rearrangement to allylic alcohols was investigated. Using the Li-salt of (1S,3R,4R)-3-(pyrrolidinyl)methyl-2-azabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane 1 as catalyst allowed both epoxides and allylic alcohols to be obtained in an enantioenriched form.
