Chiral iminium salts as catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation

This thesis deals with the catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of alkenes mediated by chiral iminium salt catalysts. The first chapter contains a review of some of the most effective catalytic asymmetric methods for preparing chiral epoxides from alkenes. Merits and drawbacks of these methods are also...
