“…Simple and convenient methods of resolution of rac -BINOL 1 have been widely developed through selective crystallization of diastereomeric complexes obtained using various chiral auxiliaries. Thus, chiral m -tolyl methyl sulfoxide 28 , , chiral tartaric acid derivative 29 , , (1 R ,2 R )-diaminocyclohexane 30 , − ( S )-proline derivatives 31a − 31b , − and, more recently, chiral N -benzylcinchonidinium chloride 32 , − ( R )-α-methylbenzylamine 11 , , and threo -(1 S ,2 S )- N -benzyl- N , N -dimethyl-[1,3-difydrocyl-1-(4‘-nitrophenyl)]-2-propyammonium chloride 33 proved to be efficient (Scheme ).…”
