چکیده
Zeolite and zeolite-like molecular sieves are being used in a large number of applications such as adsorption and catalysis. Achievement of the long-standing goal of creating a chiral, polycrystalline molecular sieve with bulk enantioenrichment would enable these materials to perform enantioselective functions. Here, we report the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched samples of a molecular sieve. Enantiopure organic structure directing agents are designed with the assistance of computational methods and used to synthesize enantioenriched, polycrystalline molecular sieve samples of either enantiomer. Computational results correctly predicted which enantiomer is obtained, and enantiomeric enrichment is proven by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The enantioenriched and racemic samples of the molecular sieves are tested as adsorbents and heterogeneous catalysts. The enantioenriched molecular sieves show enantioselectivity for the ring opening reaction of epoxides and enantioselective adsorption of 2-butanol (the R enantiomer of the molecular sieve shows opposite and approximately equal enantioselectivity compared with the S enantiomer of the molecular sieve, whereas the racemic sample of the molecular sieve shows no enantioselectivity).

متن کاملAdvances in the Synthesis of Polymeric, Enantiomerically Enriched Helicenes and Acenes
Helicene molecules have enormous potential utility. Helicenes are foreseen to act as organic semiconductors, components of fast optical switches, asymmetric catalysts, and molecular actuators. Acene molecules have potential utility as organic semiconductors due to their linear, conjugated pi-electron system. Yet despite this multitude of uses, there has been no method of preparing polymeric hel...
متن کاملSynthesis of enantiomerically enriched indolines and tetrahydroisoquinolines from (S)-amino acid-derived chiral carbocations: an easy access to (3S,4R)-demethoxy-3-isopropyl diclofensine.
Enantiomerically enriched indolines and tetrahydroisoquinolines were synthesized within 5 min to 2 h in high yields from easily accessible (S)-amino acid derived chiral carbocations. The diastereoselective Friedel-Crafts reaction is promoted by a Lewis acid (AlCl3) offering trans-diastereoselectivity. The rate of the reaction and diastereoselectivity of the product are significantly influenced ...
متن کاملEnantiospecific synthesis of [2.2]paracyclophane-4-thiol and derivatives
This paper describes a simple route to enantiomerically enriched [2.2]paracyclophane-4-thiol via the stereospecific introduction of a chiral sulfoxide to the [2.2]paracyclophane skeleton. The first synthesis of an enantiomerically enriched planar chiral benzothiazole is also reported.
متن کاملA simple explanation of the enhancement or depletion of the enantiomeric excess in the partial sublimation of enantiomerically enriched amino acids.
In the partial sublimation of three enantiomerically enriched amino acids, the ee of the sublimates can be explained by the ratio between the saturated vapor pressures of the racemate and the pure enantiomers.
