Enantioselective complexation of chiral lariat crown ethers and chiral primary alkylammonium perchlorates
In order to investigate the enantiomeric recognition abilities toward 2 chiral alkylammonium perchlorates (AmI, AmII) by (1)H-NMR titration method in CDCl(3), 4 chiral lariat ethers 8-11 with a (p-methoxyphenoxy) methyl flexible side arm were used. The most effective enantiomeric recognition was obtained by LCEs 9 and 11 toward AmII, by K(R)/K(S) 6.58 and K(S)/K(R) 6.63, respectively. The effect of macroring size, subunit of macroring, and side arm appeared to have strong influence on the binding ability of these alkylammonium ions.
