Abstract
Starting with the chiral pool compounds (-)-menthone, (-)-limonene, (-)-bet a -pinene, and (-)-carvone, new homochiral triethanolamine derivatives were obtained and converted to chiral silatranes. These silatranes were charact erized by crystal structure analyses and NMR techniques. Conformational ana lyses in the solid state and in solution show that the chiral terpene resid ues determine the direction of the ring puckering of the silatrane moiety.
