Abstract
Abstract The enantio-and diastereoselective epoxidation of α, β-unsaturated aldehydes in aqueous media was realized using a resin-supported peptide catalyst. Introducing the hydrophobic and bulky unnatural amino acid 3-(1-pyrenyl) alanine into the peptide sequence was effective for enhancing the reaction rate and enantioselectivity.
