Giancarlo Cravotto et al.
Chirality, 16(8), 526-533 (2004-08-04)
Cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives are important selectors for analytical chiral recognition. Their enantioselectivities and chemical properties depend on ring size and on nature, number and location of substituents. This paper describes the synthesis of 6-O-TBDMS-2,3-O-methyl beta-cyclodextrins bearing in position 2 either

A method to determine the absolute configuration of 2,3-epoxy-2-methylbutanoate ester residues in natural products is presented, based on (i) the reduction of the ester function to yield a 2-methyl-1,2-butanediol, (ii) esterification of the obtained primary alcohol with either (R)-(+)- or

Two different mixture synthesis routes have been used to make the four stereoisomers of petrocortyne A. A first quick and dirty route provided a mixture of the four isomers in nonselective fashion. Mosher and 2-naphthylmethoxyacetic acid (NMA) ester methods were

Nature protocols, 2(10), 2451-2458 (2007-10-20)
This protocol details the most commonly used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based method for deducing the configuration of otherwise unknown stereogenic, secondary carbinol (alcohol) centers (R1R2CHOH (or the analogous amines where OH is replaced by NH2)). This 'Mosher ester analysis' relies
