| Application: | (S)-(-)-α-Methylbenzylamine along with 2-formylphenylboronic acid has been used in a derivatization protocol to analyze the enantiomeric excess of chiral diols. It can also be used: • In the diastereoselective synthesis of S-aminonitriles. • As a chiral auxiliary in the synthesis of (S)-(-)-N-acetylcalycotomine or (R)-(+)-N-acetylcalycotomine. • As a chiral building block in the asymmetric synthesis of 1-substituted tetrahydro-β-carbolines. |
| Application: | Used in a one-pot, multi-component synthesis of a highly substituted, chiral pyrrole. |
