Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
(-)-Bis[(S)-1-phenylethyl]amine is used as a chiral resolution reagent in organic synthesis. | [Preparation]
Preparative Methods of (-)-(S,S)-α,α′-Dimethyldibenzylamine: minor improvements to the original catalytic hydrogenation procedure have been
described (eq 1). This method provides (S,S)-(-)-(1) with an optical purity of only 70%. Enantiomerically
pure (S,S)-(-)-(1) can be obtained by recrystallization of the hydrochloride salt of this enriched material from
water or the benzoate salt from isopropanol. A chemical reduction procedure has also been described that
yields optically active (S,S)-(1) with 74% enantiomeric excess (eq 2). A significant improvement to the
former procedures is the diastereoselective hydrogenation of imines catalyzed by rhodium/chiral
diphosphines, which yields (S,S)-(1) with an optical purity of 99.4% (eq 3).
| [General Description]
(-)-(S,S)-α,α′-Dimethyldibenzylamine is a starting material for the formation of chiral amide reagents; useful in the stereospecific deprotonation of
prochiral ketones, and as a chirality transfer agent in the reactions of prochiral enolates; stereoselective
conjugate addition of organometallic reagents to unsaturated carbonyl systems.[1] | [storage]
(-)-(S,S)-α,α′-Dimethyldibenzylamine is no special precautions have been noted in the literature. The free base is
a clear distillable liquid that should be stored under an inert atmosphere to prevent air oxidation. Long term
storage may lead to some coloration of the material. | [Purification Methods]
Purification of (-)-(S,S)-α,α′-Dimethyldibenzylamine: the free base can be distilled. The HCl salt can be recrystallized from water, which removes
diastereomeric impurities. The benzoate salt can be recrystallized from isopropanol.
