General description

(R)-(−)-Mandelic acid is a chiral resolving agent, which is also used as a chiral building block in the preparation of semisynthetic cephalosporins, antitumor agents, and penicillins.

Application

(R)-(−)-Mandelic acid can be used:
  • As a chiral acid in the separation of diastereomeric salts for the synthesis of chiral pyridoindole based building block.
  • In the study of chiral acid selectivity of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) based chiral conducting polymers.
