An organocatalytic enantioselective epoxidation of 2,3-disubstituted naphthoquinones withtert-butyl hydroperoxide as an oxidant was developed using a guanidine–urea bifunctional catalyst lackingC2symmetry, which was designed based upon the insights obtained from the DFT calculation model for our previousC2symmetric catalyst. The present organocatalytic reaction provides access to a variety of optically active naphthoquinone epoxides bearing aryl and methyl substituents at C2 and C3 in high yields with high enantioselectivities (up to 97:3 er).
