An ora 1452 error says there are duplicate keys, hence you can't create a unique key. If it is a known, death be unto me if I am wrong, 100% fact that the unique key was valid in the original data, the first question I would ask is: Was this an import that is being run with commit=y ignore=y, aborted, then restarted without truncating the data? In a case like that, you would get duplicate rows.
If that is not the case, you could try creating an EXCEPTIONS table using the ?/rdbms/admin/utlexcpt.sql script. Then try to add the unique constraint using the extra clause: "exceptions into exceptions". The exceptions table will have the rowid's of the offending rows. You can then: select a,b,c,etc. from your_table where rowid in (select row_id from exceptions);
