- the unsymmetrical salens with zinc, copper, and cobalt was studied and the chiral Co–salen complex 2f was obtained in 98% yield. Hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of epichlorohydrin with water catalyzed by complex 2f (0.5 mol %) was explored and resulted in 98% ee, suggesting complex 2f could serve
- as an enantioselective catalyst for the asymmetric ring opening of terminal epoxides by phenols. A library of α-aryloxy alcohols 3 was thereafter synthesized in good yield and high ee using 2f via the phenolic KR of epichlorohydrin. Keywords: α-aryloxy alcohols; chiral Co–salen; HKR
- ]. Jones et al. designed a cyclooctene-based Co–salen macrocycle catalyst for the phenolic KR of epichlorohydrin and 1,2-epoxyhexane [21]. However, these Co–salen systems suffer from several limitations such as tedious preparation of salen scaffolds, excess use of epoxides, high catalyst loadings, narrow

- yields were best in the reactions with electron-rich alkenes and when a low concentration of the base was used to minimize the destruction of difluorocarbene. The use of oxirane or epichlorohydrin as hydrogen halide scavengers avoided the need for a stoichiometric amount of the strong base [16][17]. The

The unoptimised preparations of soluble and insoluble CDPs displayed very small particle size distributions, while the prepared polymers currently
- provide (2-hydroxy)propyl-CDs (HPCDs) that are commonly used in pharmaceutical formulations and household products. Furthermore, a class of non-hydrolysable, soluble and insoluble CD polymers (CDP) can be prepared by crosslinking CDs with epichlorohydrin or 1,2:3,4-diepoxybutane. These are the oldest and
- demonstrated, mechanochemical reactions usually give a more balanced substitution pattern for the randomly substituted derivatives [12]. In CDP preparations almost the same reaction conditions are used, but 1,2-propylene oxide is replaced with epichlorohydrin [13][14][15][16]. The disadvantage of this reaction
