Application

Dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid may be used as a chiral resolving agent for the resolution of racemic Troger base. It may also be used as a ligand to synthesize chiral transition metal complexes, which have potential utility in organic asymmetric catalysis.

Construction and operation of a laboratory model, which combines the lately discovered enantioenrichment method of the author (2007) with the sun-powered evaporative pumping process of Hsu and Siegenthaler (Sedimentology 12:11-25 1969), is described. The model operated continuously for 120 days

Due to low central nervous system (CNS) bioavailability of delta-opioid peptides, little is known about the effect of systemic administration of delta-opioid receptor ligands. The present study examined the effect of non-peptidergic delta-opioid receptor agonists, (+)-4-[(alphaR)-alpha-((2R,5R)-4-Allyl-2,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl)-3-methoxybenzyl]-N,N-diethylbenzamide (SNC80) and (-)dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid

The diarylpiperazine delta-opioid agonist SNC80 [(+)-4-[(alphaR)-alpha-[(2S,5R)-2,5-dimethyl-4-(2-propenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-(3-methoxyphenyl)methyl]-N,N-diethylbenzamide] produces convulsions, antidepressant-like effects, and locomotor stimulation in rats. The present study compared the behavioral effects in Sprague-Dawley rats of SNC80 with its two derivatives, SNC86 [(+)-4-[alpha(R)-alpha-[(2S,5R)-2,5-dimethyl-4-(2-propenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-(3-hydroxyphenyl)methyl]-N,N-diethylbenzamide] and SNC162 [(+)-4-[(alphaR)-alpha-[(2S,5R)-2,5-dimethyl-4-(2-propenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-(3-phenyl)methyl]-N,N-diethylbenzamide], which differ by one
