Direct enantiomer separation of 2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate esters on cyclodextrin derivatives stationary phases in GC

Direct enantiomeric separation of all four optical isomers of 2-phenylcyclopropane carboxylate ester was first achieved on each of the three different beta-cyciodextrin chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in GC. Using these CSPs, enantiomeric excess of the products of enantioselective cyclopropanation can be determined directly, conveniently and fast.

Synthetic studies on optically active Schiff-base ligands derived from condensation of 2-hydroxyacetophenone and chiral diamines

Three optically active Schiff-base ligands have been prepared by condensation of 2-hydroxyacetophenone with (IR,2R)-(-)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane, (1S,2S)-(-)1,2-diphenylethylenediamine or R-(+)-2,2'-diamino-1,1'-binaphthalene, respectively. The products have been characterized by their IR, H-1- and C-13-NMR spectra.
