title: Renewable camphor-derived hydroperoxide: synthesis and use in the asymmetric epoxidation of allylic alcohols.
abstract: Renewable enantiopure tertiary furyl hydroperoxide has been easily synthesized in two steps starting from low cost (+)-(1R)-camphor and it has been used in the asymmetric epoxidation and kinetic resolution of allylic alcohols (enantioselectivities up to 46%).
