Abstract
The mnemonic device for predicting stereoselectivities in the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation (AD) reaction has been updated based on extensive computational studies. Kinetic measurements from competition reactions validate the new proposal. The interactions responsible for the high stereoselectivity in the title reaction are analyzed in detail and mapped onto the mnemonic device.
