This paper describes a highly chemo- and enantioselective epoxidation of conjugated cis-enynes usingreadily available glucose-derived ketone 2 as catalyst and Oxone as oxidant to form cis-propargyl epoxidesin high ee's. The interaction between the alkyne group of the substrate and the oxazolidinone moiety ofthe ketone catalyst as well as the interactions between the substituents on enynes and the oxazolidinonemoiety of the ketone catalyst are important for the stereodifferentiation.
