J. Zhu et al., RESOLUTION OF ALKYL PYRIDYL SULFOXIDES BY COMPLEXATION WITH A CHIRAL HOST COMPOUND DERIVED FROM TARTARIC ACID, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 8(15), 1997, pp. 2505-2508
Alkyl pyridyl sulfoxides 2 were prepared in high enantiomeric excess b
y resolution through inclusion complexation with a chiral host compoun
d, (2R,3R) or (hydroxydiphenylmethyl)-2,2-dimethly-1,3-dioxolane 1. Th
e X-ray crystallographic structure analysis of complex (R,R)-(-)-1 and
(R)-(-)-2b is reported. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
