Application

(S)-(+)-2-Amino-1-propanol may be used in the preparation of unsymmetrical tridentate Schiff base ligands via condensation with carbonyl compounds. It may also be used as a chiral auxillary for the preparation of tert-butyl 4-N-[(2-hydroxy-1-(S)-methyl)ethylamino]-2-methylene-4-(S)-phenyl-butyrate.
Reacts with aryl nitriles to form oxazolines which are useful in Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution.
