Abstract The enantio‐ and diastereoselective epoxidation of α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes in aqueous media was realized using a resin‐supported peptide catalyst. Introducing the hydrophobic and bulky unnatural amino acid 3‐(1‐pyrenyl)alanine into the peptide sequence was effective for enhancing the reaction rate and enantioselectivity.
