A simple and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of enantiopure epoxide derivatives of some constrained chiral cyclic β-amino acids via iodolactonization and alkaline de-iodation. Lower stereoselectivities were observed when the classical method using mCPBA was used when a bicyclic β-amino acid was involved leading to a quasi-inseparable mixture of two epoxides.
