racemic a-hydroxy esters, -amides and thioesters with excellent selectivity
factors (k rel ΒΌ 40 to 4500) (Scheme 6.13).
Subsequently, Chen's group prepared polystyrene-supported chiral
vanadyl catalysts through the click chemistry approach. 20 These catalysts
promoted the asymmetric aerobic oxidation of a-hydroxy (thio)esters
and -amides with enantioselectivities of up to 99%ee in chloroform
(Scheme 6.14). These catalysts can be readily recovered by filtration and
