General description

(R)-(+)-α-Methylbenzyl isocyanate is an organic compound that belongs to the class of isocyanates. It is used in the synthesis of chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis. These ligands play a crucial role in enantioselective reactions, allowing to produce single enantiomer products.

Application

  • Paper Title: Stereoselective metabolism of nicotine and tobacco-specific N-nitrosamines to 4-hydroxy-4-(3-pyridyl)butanoic acid in rats. (Trushin N, Hecht SS, 1999).
  • Paper Title: Absolute configuration of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol formed metabolically from 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone. (Hecht SS, Spratt TE, Trushin N, 1997).

The derivatization of racemic 5-[(2-methylphenoxy)methyl]-2-amino-2-oxazoline, developed as an imidazoline binding sites ligand, with (+)-(R)-alpha-methylbenzyl isocyanate was performed in chloroform. The reaction led to two pairs of diastereomers, which were separated by RP-HPLC. A kinetic study of the derivatization reaction was
