[GRAPHICS]. In the stoichiometric asymmetric epoxidation of E-fl-methylstyrene with cationic chromium-salen oxo complexes, enantioselectivity is increased by halo-substitution at the 3,3'- and 6,6'-positions and decreased at the 4,4'- and 5,5'-positions on the salen rings. Addition of triphenylphosphine oxide significantly increases selection with 3,3'- or 5,5'-substituents but not with 4,4'- or 6,6'-substituents. Use of nitrate counterion is beneficial in most cases. The results are discussed with respect to the mode of stereoselection in metal-salen epoxidations..
