Application

(R)-(+)-4-Methoxy-α-methylbenzylamine can be used as a reactant to prepare:
  • Enantiopure stereoisomers of hemicryptophanes, which are used for the recognition of glucopyranosides.
  • Bicyclic Geissman-Waiss lactone via intramolecular ring-closure reaction of the diastereomeric mixture of sulfonium salts.
  • N-[(1R)-1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)ethyl]-N′-methylthiourea by reacting with methyl isothiocyanate.
