Polysaccharide-based CSPs also exhibit a chiral recognition for alcohols and a large number of resolutions have been reported. Chiral alcohols can usually be directly resolved with hexane containing a small amount of an alcohol as the eluent. For aliphatic alcohols, which cannot be directly resolved, their resolution is often efficiently attained as phenylcarbamate or benzoate derivatives on OD (Figure 17).85 For example, 2-butanol and 2-pentanol are completely resolved with a very high selectivity on OD as their phenylcarbamates. The derivatization of alcohols to phenylcarbamates and benzoates can be easily achieved by the reaction with phenyl isocyanates and benzoyl chlorides, respectively. In most cases, the phenylcarbamates are better resolved than the benzoates. For chiral compounds bearing phenolic hydroxy groups, the addition of a small amount of an acid to an eluent is recommended to depress its dissociation. 

Calix[4]arene tetraethers can be converted into mono Cr(CO)3 complexes 72, which makes one of the phenolic units different from the others (AAAB).135 Thus, a single chiral compound is obtained from the 1,2-altemate conformer, while for the partial cone conformer only one of the three possible products is asymmetric (compare Figure 13). Mono derivatives fixed in the cone and 1,3-altemate conformation contain a symmetry plane. 

Some commonly used resolving agents are summarized in Table 1 [15-48]. The formation of non-covalent diastereomeric salts is driven by ionic interactions. Therefore, suitable functional groups (acidic or basic) are required to be present in both counterparts. This makes impossible a direct application of the diastereomeric crystallization technique to several classes of chiral compounds such as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, diols, thiols, dithiols, and phenols. This is a critical disadvantage of this technique. The compounds of the above-mentioned groups may be transformed to their more polar derivatives and resolved as such. However, this requires an additional reaction step, and reagents, and the recovery of the starting material after the resolution may not always be easy. 

The measurement of photoinduced birefringence revealed very different anisotropy. Considering the numerous compounds that could readily be complexed with this type of polymer, including chiral adds, phenols, and metals, the approach of using side-chain azopyridine polymers offers the possibility to produce a large number of new photoactive liquid crystalline materials without exhaustive synthetic efforts and with new properties to exploit. And really the approach has been exploited in recent works. The materials similar to that... 

A number of other chiral catalysts can promote enantioselective conjugate additions of silyl enol ethers, silyl ketene acetals, and related compounds. For example, an oxazaborolidinone derived from allothreonine achieves high enantioselectivity in additions of silyl thioketene acetals.323 The optimal conditions for this reaction also include a hindered phenol and an ether additive. 

The key structural features of compound 1 are the chiral cis-diaryl benzox-athiin fused ring system, two phenols, and one phenol ether linkage with the pyrrolidinylethanol. Originally, SERM 1 was prepared by medicinal chemists from a key ketone intermediate 5 shown in Scheme 5.1. Compound 5 was prepared in four steps with rather low yield [4a], Among these steps, the high temperature de-methylation step and the use of extremely toxic MOM-C1 were not particularly suitable for scale-up. The ketone 5 was then brominated with PhMe3NBr3 (PTAB) and coupled with thiophenol 7 to produce adduct 8. The key step of the synthesis was the conversion of adduct 8 to cis-diaryl benzoxathiin 9 under the Kursanov-Parne reaction conditions (TFA/Et3SiH). This novel reaction allowed the formation... 

Several 4-(3-alkyl-2-isoxazolin-5-yl)phenol derivatives that possess liquid crystal properties have also been obtained (533-535). In particular, target compounds such as 463 (R = pentyl, nonyl) have been prepared by the reaction of 4-acetoxystyrene with the nitrile oxide derived from hexanal oxime, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the acetate and esterification (535). A homologous series of 3-[4-alkyloxyphenyl]-5-[3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl]-2-isoxazolines, having chiral properties has been synthesized by the reaction of nitrile oxides, from the dehydrogenation of 4-alkyloxybenzaldoximes. These compounds exhibit cholesteric phase or chiral nematic phase (N ), smectic A (S4), and chiral smectic phases (Sc ), some at or just above room temperature (536).

In most cases, chiral alcohol and phenol derivatives are used as host compounds for the resolution. In these cases, guest molecules are accommodated in the complex by formation of hydrogen bond with the hydroxyl group of the host. Since the hydrogen bond is not very strong, the included guest compound can be recovered easily from the inclusion complex by distillation, recrystallization, chromatography or some other simple procedures.
