| Application: | (1R)-(−)-Camphorquinone can be used as a chiral starting material for the preparation of: • α-Hydroxycamphors by selective reduction of keto groups using various vegetables. • Camphor-1,2-diamine platinum(II) complexes for DNA interaction studies. • Camphoric anhydride by unsensitized photo-oxidation in the presence of oxygen and polar solvents. • Camphorquinone-based chiral homoallylic amine, which is reacted with aldehydes to produce homoallylic primary amines via imine formation followed by 2-azonia-Cope rearrangement. |
