Vanadium triisopropoxide oxide and an α‐amino acid‐based hydroxamic acid (e.g. 1 ) form the catalyst for the asymmetric epoxidation of homoallylic alcohols presented here. 3‐Substituted alcohols 2 were epoxidized to the corresponding epoxy alcohols 3 with good ee values. In addition, a concise total synthesis of (−)‐α‐ and (−)‐8‐ epi ‐α‐bisabolol was achieved.
