Resolving Reagent for Carboxylic Acids and Other Typesof Compounds. A large number of carboxylic acids have beenresolved via their diastereomeric salts with (S)- or (R)-α-methyl-benzylamine (1). The ready availability of both enantiomers of (1)guarantees access to both enantiomers of the desired acid. Com-pounds (2)–(6) are representative examples of acids obtained inhigh enantiomeric purity.7–11 Alternatively, racemic carboxylicacids have been resolved by covalent derivatization with (1) andseparation of the resulting diastereomeric amides by physicalmeans such as chromatography (eq 1)12 or fractional crystalliza-tion (eq 2).13

Racemic compounds other than carboxylic acids have alsobeen resolved by reaction with enantiomerically pure (1) andseparation of the corresponding diastereomeric mixtures by phys-ical methods. For example, reaction of a racemic β-substitutedγ-butyrolactone with (1) yields a mixture of hydroxy amides,which can be separated by fractional recrystallization andchromatography (eq 3).14 Amide hydrolysis regenerates the

chiral hydroxy acids, which spontaneously cyclize to producethe chiral lactones.

Reagent for the Determination of Enantiomeric Purity ofCarboxylic Acids. Amine (1) is frequently used as a derivatiz-ing reagent for determining the enantiomeric purity of carboxylicacids by HPLC, with limits of detection often as low as 1%. Mostcommonly used coupling methods include use of dehydratingagents such as 1,3-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (eq 5)16 and themixed anhydride method (eq 6).17

Stereospecific Reactions of Carbonyl Compounds. One ofthe most frequent uses of both enantiomers of reagent (1) is inpromoting the stereospecific reaction of carbonyl compounds viathe corresponding chiral imines. The transfer of chirality from(1) to the newly formed bonds is generally most effective in cy-clization reactions. Some examples are the Lewis acid-catalyzedcyclization of ω-unsaturated aldehyde imines to produce aminesof high enantiomeric purity (eq 7),18 the enantioselective synthe-sis of γ ,δ-unsaturated aldehydes via the aza-Claisen rearrange-ment of derivatives of (1) (eq 8),19 and the asymmetric Lewisacid-catalyzed aza-Diels–Alder reaction of aldehyde imines withelectron-rich dienes (eq 9).20

Another frequent use of (1) and its enantiomer is the stere-ospecific conjugate addition of carbonyl compounds to α,β-unsaturated systems. Most published examples contain chiralimine derivatives of cyclic ketones, which add to α,β-unsaturatedesters and ketones in a highly stereoselective manner (eqs 13 and14).24,25 When the ketone is not symmetrically substituted, reac-tion usually occurs at the most substituted α-position, includingthose cases where the ketone is α-substituted by oxygen (eq 15).26

High stereoselectivity can also be achieved when the Michael ac-ceptor is other than an unsaturated ketone or ester, such as a vinylsulfone (eq 16).27 Intramolecular variations of this transformationhave also been described (eq 17).28

Removable Chiral Appendage. Even in reactions that pro-ceed with moderate stereoselectivity, incorporation of a chiralmoiety such as (1) frequently provides an opportunity to easilyseparate diastereomeric products. For example, the introductionof (1) into an imidazolone structure allows the easy separation ofdiastereomers by chromatography. Reductive removal of the chi-ral appendage and imidazolone hydrolysis provides a synthesis ofoptically pure α-amino acids (eq 20).31 In another example, eventhough the conjugate addition of (1) to methyl crotonate proceedswith low stereoselectivity, the diastereomeric conjugates are easilyseparated by chromatography and elaborated to provide opticallyactive β-amino esters (eq 21).32 Similarly, cycloaddition of thealdimine of (1) with a substituted ketene produces a mixture ofβ-lactams, which can be separated by chromatography as a sourceof optically active β-lactams (eq 22).33

Use as Chiral Resolving Agent. Incorporation of (1) intoseveral templates has afforded some novel chiral shift reagents forNMR spectroscopy. Although (1) can also be used as a chiral shiftreagent for carboxylic acids, the analog (9) was more efficient.In fact, the epimer was equally efficacious. Both epimers werereadily available via a three-step sequence (Grignard coupling,triflate formation, and triflate displacement by (1)).37

Although the above ligand system elegantly exemplified the po-tential of (1), numerous systems led to poor enantioselectivitiesand/or poor yields. A substituted 1,3-aminophosphine incorporat-ing (1) could effectively induce reduction of acetophenone deriva-tives, albeit with very small substrate scope.51 Phosphoramidatescontaining (1) were found to be fairly effective in the reductionof α,β-unsaturated systems with Rh(COD)2BF4.52 The simplifiedphosphoramidate (16), generated for asymmetric hydrogenationof enamides, failed to provide any yield with the free amine.53
