CHIRAL LATTICE-CONTROLLED ASYMMETRIC PHOTOISOMERIZATION OF (2-CYANOETHYL)COBALOXIMES IN THE SOLID-STATE
Solid-state asymmetric photoisomerization of 2-cyanoethylcobaloxime complexes occurred to afford optically active 1-cyanoethylcobaloxime complexes with moderate to high enantioselectivities (similar to 82%ee). The X-ray crystal structure analysis of (R)-2-phenylglycinol-coordinated complex revealed...

Summary: | Solid-state asymmetric photoisomerization of 2-cyanoethylcobaloxime complexes occurred to afford optically active 1-cyanoethylcobaloxime complexes with moderate to high enantioselectivities (similar to 82%ee). The X-ray crystal structure analysis of (R)-2-phenylglycinol-coordinated complex revealed that the 2-cyanoethyl group is forced to take a chiral conformation by chiral crystal lattice. The enantioselection mechanism is also discussed based on the X-ray results. |
