“…1,2 To meet this progressive need, a large number of preparative methods for enantiopure (S)-and (R)-BI-NOL have been reported, including fractional crystallization of diastereoisomers, 3,4 resolution with enzymes or microorganisms, 5 asymmetric oxidation coupling, 6 and enantioselective complexation. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] As far as the complexation method is concerned, N-benzylcinchonidinium chloride, 7 N-benzylcinchonidinium chloride, 8 (S)-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxanilide, 9 (S,S)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane, 10 chiral sulfoxide 11 N-(3-chloro-2-hydroxy-propyl)-N,N,Ntrimethylammonium chloride, 12 and ethers of tartaric acid derivatives 13 have been used as chiral complexing agents.…”
