Supramolecular Architecture of an Amphiphilic Amino Alcohol as a Versatile Chiral Environment for Stereocontrolled Photoreaction of Various Anthracenes
Abstract:The photocyclodimerization of 2-anthracenecarboxylic acid has been extensively studied as a model reaction of asymmetric photochemistry. So far, numerous chiral environments have been employed to control this photoreaction, while the scope of photoreactants has been limited only to 2anthracenecarboxylic acid and its simple esters and amides.Here, we developed a systematic series of photoreactants (2 a-d) by introducing various substituents to 2-anthracenecarboxylic acid, which showed different reactivities and… Show more
