The parallel kinetic resolution of racemic 1-phenylethanol using an equimolar combination of quasi-enantiomeric 2-arylpropionic and butanoic acids mediated by a N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC)/3,5-lutidine coupling is discussed. The levels of dia...

On the structure and chiroptical properties of (S)-4-isopropyl-oxazolidin-2-one (2008)
Journal Article
Benoit, D., Coulbeck, E., Eames, J., & Motevalli, M. (2008). On the structure and chiroptical properties of (S)-4-isopropyl-oxazolidin-2-one. Tetrahedron: Asymmetry, 19(9), 1068-1077. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tetasy.2008.03.032

The specific rotation of (S)-4-isopropyl-oxazolidin-2-one is extremely solvent dependent. In chloroform it is dextrorotatory {[α] D 26 = + 15.5 (c 5.2, CHCl 3 )}, whereas in ethanol it is levorotatory {[α] D 26 = - 16.1 (c 5.2, EtOH)}. © 2008 Elsevie...
