Bis tartrate

The aqueous filtrates may be combined and saved for isolation of (S,S)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane as the bis-(+)-tartrate salt using an alternate procedure.2 The methanol washes can be discarded. 

At least one group attempted to synthesize enantio-enriched 1 via as5munetric reduction of 8 with modest success (Krasik and Alper, 1992). The classical resolution of racemic 1 (via the bis-tartrate salt, for example) (Nabenhaur, 1942) remains as the simplest and most economical method for preparing chiral amphetamine (1) on a large scale. 

Tartaric Acid. Quantitative measures of total tartrate are useful in determining the amount of acid reduction required for high acid musts and in predicting the tartrate stability of finished wines. Three procedures may be used. Precipitation as calcium racemate is accurate (85), but the cost and unavailability of L-tartaric acid are prohibitive. Precipitation of tartaric acid as potassium bitartrate is the oldest procedure but is somewhat empirical because of the appreciable solubility of potassium bi-tartrate. Nevertheless, it is still an official AO AC method (3). The colorimetric metavanadate procedure is widely used (4, 6, 86, 87). Tanner and Sandoz (88) reported good correlation between their bitartrate procedure and Rebeleins rapid colorimetric method (87). Potentiometric titration in Me2CO after ion exchange was specific for tartaric acid (89). 

Studies of bis-tartrate esters and other tartrate ligands for titanium-mediated asymmetric epoxidation have provided evidence against the sole intermediacy of monomeric titanium-tartrate species in the parent system329,330. Other tartrate ligands have been studied in attempts to gain a better understanding of the mechanism of the Sharpless epoxidation330. 

The nonconventional tartrate esters (1) to (3) have been used to probe tite mechanism of the asymmetric epoxidation process. These chain-linked bis(tartrate) molecides when complexed with 2 equiv. of Ti(OBu )4 catalyze asymmetric epoxidation with good enantiofacial selectivity. A number of tartrate-like ligands have been studied as potential chiral auxiliaries in the asymmetric epoxidation and kinetic resolution processes. Although on occasion a ligand has been found that has the capability to induce high enantioselectivity into selected substrates (see Section 3.2.T.3), none has exhibited the broad scope of effectiveness seen with the tartrate esters. 

The first sucessful resolution of racemic arterenol was described by Tullar.6 7 An industrial scale resolution was described using d-tartaric acid and methanol.21 The levarterenol d-bi tartrate -fraction obtained by crystallization was converted to its free base form by precipitation from a methanol solution with ammonia. Repeated precipitations of enriched arterenol from d-tartrate solutions with ammonia gave the levarterenol with the required optical purity.

Tartar emetic was the subject of controversy for many years, and a variety of iacorrect stmctures were proposed. In 1966, x-ray crystallography showed that tartar emetic contains two antimony(III) atoms bridged by two tetranegative D-tartrate residues acting as double bidentate ligands to form dipotassium bis[D-p.-(2,3-dihydroxybutanedioato)]diantimonate [28300-74-5] (41). 

Results of the asymmetric 2-propenylborations of several chiral a- and /i-alkoxy aldehydes are presented in Table 11 74a-82 84. These data show that diisopinocampheyl(2-propenyl)borane A and l,3-bis(4-methylphenylsulfonyl)-4,5-diphenyl-2-propenyl-l,3,2-diazaborolidine C exhibit excellent diastereoselectivity in reactions with chiral aldehydes. These results are in complete agreement with the enantioselectivity of these reagents in reactions with achiral aldehydes (Section 1.3.3.3.3.1.4.). In contrast, however, the enantioselectivity of reactions of the tartrate 2-propenylboronate B (and to a lesser extent the tartrate (/i)-2-butenylhoronate)53b is highly... 

Along another line of work in our group (S,S)-l,4-bis(dimethylamino)-2,3-dimethoxy butane (DDB), which had been used as cosolvent in asymmetric synthesis [113], was tested as a core moiety for a dendritic amine catalyst. The conformationally flexible DDB-core, which has been synthesized in five steps from diethyl tartrate was coupled with different branches to give dendritically expanded diamines 90-92 (molecular weight 3800 Da) [114] (Fig. 32). 

Solid-state structures of two bismuth tartrate complexes reveal a similar asymmetric unit composed of two tartrate ligands on a bismuth center and are distinguished by replacement of a proton in Bi(H3tar)(H2tar) 3H20 (160) with by an ammomium ion in NH4[Bi (H2tar)2(H20)] H20 (161). The nine-coordinate bismuth environments in each structure are very similar, as illustrated in 48, respectively,... 

Starting from substituted allyl bis-(2,4-dimethyl-3-pentyl)-L-tartrate boronic acid, synthesis of a,/l-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans (134, n = 1) or tetrahydropyrans (134, n = 2) can be accomplished with high enantioselectivity (Scheme 3-46).79... 

A number of other bis(oxazolines) have been applied as ligands in the copper-catalyzed aziridination reaction. Knight and co-workers (80) examined tartrate-derived ligands. Diastereomeric bis(oxazolines) 110 and 111 were each found to be poorly effective in mediating the asymmetric aziridination of styrene, Eq. 63. 

Crystal structures are available for many (N)4Co-amino acid complexes (Table I). Many of the diastereomers (AS, AS) in the bis-en series have been resolved using classic crystallization (usually via bromocamphor sulfonate, arsenyl-, or antimonyl-tartrate salts) or ion exchange methods (Table II). Reversed-phase ion-pair HPLC, using aryl phosphate or aryl/alkyl sulfonate ion pairing reagents in MeOH/ H20 eluent, has allowed diastereomer separations to be carried out on analytical amounts (28) (Table II). 

C. (R,R)-N,N -Bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine. A 2-L, three-necked, round-bottomed flask equipped with a mechanical overhead stirrer, reflux condenser, and an addition funnel is charged with 29.7 g of (R,R)-1,2-diammoniumcyclohexane mono-(+)-tartrate salt (0.112 mol), 31.2 g of potassium carbonate (0.225 mol, 2 eq), and 150 mL of water. The mixture is stirred until dissolution is achieved, and 600 mL of ethanol is added. The cloudy mixture is heated to reflux with a heating mantle and a solution of 53.7 g (0.229 mol, 2.0 eq) of 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde in 250 mL of ethanol is then added in a slow stream over 30 min (Note 19). The addition funnel is rinsed with 50 mL of ethanol and the mixture is stirred at reflux for 2 hr before heating is discontinued. Water, 150 mL, is added and the stirred mixture is cooled to <5°C over 2 hr and maintained at that temperature for another hour. The yellow solid is collected by vacuum filtration and washed with 100 mL of ethanol. After the solid is air dried, it is dissolved in 500 mL of methylene chloride. The organic solution is washed with 2 x 300 mL of water, followed by 300 mL of saturated aqueous sodium chloride. The organic layer is dried over sodium sulfate, and filtered to remove the drying agent. The solvent is removed by rotary evaporation to yield the product as a yellow solid, mp 200-203°C (Notes 20 and 21). 

Seebach and Daum (75) investigated the properties of a chiral acyclic diol, 1,4-bis(dimethylamino)-(2S,35)- and (2K,3/ )-butane-2,3-diol (52) as a chiral auxiliary reagent for complexing with LAH. The diol is readily available from diethyl tartrate by conversion to the dimethylamide and reduction with LAH. The diol 52 could be converted to a 1 1 complex (53) with LAH (eq. [18]), which was used for the reduction of aldehydes and ketones in optical yields up to 75%. Since both enantiomers of 53 are available, dextro- or levorotatory products may be prepared. The chiral diol is readily recoverable without loss of optical activity. The (- )-52-LAH complex reduced dialkyl and aryl alkyl ketones to products enriched in the (S)-carbinol, whereas (+ )-52-LAH gives the opposite result. The highest optical yield of 75% was obtained in the reduction of 2,4,6-...
