Reduction of waste is an important goal of modern organic synthesis. We report herein oxidase reactivity for enantioselective intramolecular copper-catalyzed alkene carboamination and carboetherification reactions where previously used stoichiometric MnO2 has been replaced with oxygen. This substitution was risky as the reaction mechanism is thought to involve C-C bond formation via addition of alkyl carbon radicals to arenes. Such intermediates are also susceptible to C-O bond formation via O2 addition. Control of absolute stereochemistry under aerobic conditions was also uncertain. The oxidative cyclization efficiencies appear to track with the ease of the radical addition to the arenes.
