Advantages:
- Compatible with several functionalities
- The regiochemistry is predictable
- Stereoselective process: migrating group retains its configuration

Relative Migration Aptitude
3) The peroxy acid used may have a large effect on the results obtained.
1) The ketonic substituent that can best stabilize a partial positive charge usually migrates preferentially.
2) Effect of steric demand must be kept in mind.

The primary and the secondary effect.
Krow, G. R. Org. React. 1993, 43, 251.
The Primary and Secondary Effect
Primary effect: ... antiperiplanar to the O-O bond leaving group to have the best overlap between the C-C orbital and the * O-O orbital.
Secondary effect: ... antiperiplanar to a lone pair of the hydroxyl group.

- Even if R is the most electron-rich group, Rm will migrate because it is properly aligned.

The Primary Effect

Crudden, C. M. et al. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2000, 39, 16, 2851.
The Primary Effect
Violation of the accepted migratory aptitudes
Crudden, C. M. et al. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2000, 39, 16, 2851.
Is the Dipole/Dipole Interaction the Primary Factor? Since dipole moments are known to be stabilized by polar solvents, a decrease in selectivity would be expected as the solvent polarity increases.

Conclusions
- Now, great ee's can be obtained with the BV reaction
- The scope of the enantioselective BV is mainly limited to cyclobutanones
- If only one product is wanted (NL or AL) low yields are obtained since it is a kinetic resolution.
