K. Noemura et al., TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT REVERSAL OF ENANTIOMER SELECTIVITY IN THE COMPLEXATION OF OPTICALLY-ACTIVE PHENOLIC CROWN-ETHERS WITH CHIRAL AMINES, Chemical communications, (24), 1996, pp. 2749-2750
Phenolic crown ethers (S,S)-1, (R,R)-2; (S,S)-3 and (S,S)-4 were prepa
red in enantiomerically pure forms; the enantiomer selectivities of cr
own ethers (S,S)-1 and (R,R)-2 in complexation with 2-aminopropan-1-ol
reversed at ca, 6 degrees C and increased with increasing temperature
above the isoenantioselective temperature.
