Chiral recognition of ethers by NMR spectroscopy

Abstract: Enantiomers of chiral ethers and acetals are notoriously difficult to differentiate because their reactivity is low and they are poor donors to any Lewis acid or metal ion. As an exception, epoxides are somewhat better donors. This review describes the properties of ethers, explains NMR methods for their chiral recognition and describes successful examples of ether differentiation. The majority of literature reports deals with chiral lanthanide shift reagents and dirhodium tetracarboxylate complexes, which wer… Show more

“…This is due to coalescence phenomena which have been discussed by us before. 3 If line broadening is hindering a safe determination of enantiomeric excess (ee), it can be removed or at least alleviated by heating the sample up to 40-508C.…”

“…4 Ligands L form kinetically labile 1:1-or 2:1-adducts with Rh1 depending on their relative molar composition (Scheme 2); ligand exchange rates are generally high relative to the NMR time-scale so that time-averaged NMR signals are observed at room temperature. 1:1-Adducts prevail under the so-called standard dirhodium experiment conditions, i.e., equimolar amounts of Rh1 and L, dissolved in CDCl 3 .…”

“…Araliphatic ethers [7] and thioethers (compounds 1 and 2, respectively, in Scheme 2) were chosen as candidates. Ethers form rather weak adducts with Rh * [7,8] and the binding energy is expected to be based primarily on electrostatic interaction. Orbital [highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)-LUMO] interaction does not contribute significantly if oxygen, as a secondrow element, is involved; the HOMO-LUMO gap is too large.…”

“…In NMR spectroscopy, three main protocols are used: chiral derivatization agents (CDA) [9,10], chiral lanthanide shift reagents (CLSR) [9][10][11] and chiral solvating agents (CSA) [9][10][11][12]. These methods rely on formation of diastereomeric complexes (between chiral resolving agent and analyte either through covalent or non-covalent coupling), which differ in the chemical shifts of some or all of their proton resonances.…”
