Abstract
2,2-Dimethyl-1-(1-naphthyl)propanol was synthesized and the corresponding e nantiomers were isolated by chiral HPLC. These enantiomers gave diastereois omeric carbamates by reaction with (S)-(-)-1-phenylethylisocyanate, which w ere studied by NMR. The comparison of NMR data and molecular mechanics calc ulations allowed us to determine the absolute configuration of correspondin g alcohols. Finally, x-ray results were in agreement with the absolute conf iguration proposed from the NMR spectra. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & So ns, Ltd.
