Abstract
The asymmetric oxidation of prochiral 2-(arylsulfenyl)pyrroles has been investigated. A marked electronic effect within the substrate significantly influenced the degree of enantioselectivity obtained, with very high enantio selectivity being obtained for 5-(nitrobenzensulfenyl)pyrrole-2-carboxaldehydes using Ti(i-PrO)4/(+)-(R,R)-DET/H2O/CHP. This result bodes well for optimizing the asymmetric oxidation of other diaryl sulfides, substrates that have previously given only low enantiomeric excesses.Key words: asymmetric oxidation, sulfide, sulfoxide, pyrrole.
