Application

(1R,2R)-(−)-trans-1-Amino-2-indanol has been used as a starting material to prepare an indene-based chiral auxiliary, which is used in the aldol reaction.
It can also be used as:
  • A starting material in the synthesis of oxazoline-alcohol ligands, which are employed in the asymmetric addition reaction of diethylzinc to aldehydes.
  • A chiral test compound in the study of enantiomeric separation of chiral primary amines using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and HPLC.
