Branched poly(tartrate ester) can be use as heterogeneous ligands in the epoxidation of trans-hex-2-en-1-ol using Ti(OPri)4-tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Removal and recovery of the polymer catalyst is a simple filtration at the end of reactions. %K Asymmetric epoxidation %K Sharpless epoxidation %K polymer-supported catalyst %U http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/3/3/51
