The Synthesis of Novel Oxazolinylphosphinic Esters and Amides and Application to the Cyanosilylation of Aldehydes

Achiral and chiral NNN-pincer nickel complexes with oxazolinyl backbones: application in transfer hydrogenation of ketones

NNN-based achiral and chiral (oxazolinyl)amido-pincer nickel complexes are developed and employed for the catalytic transfer hydrogenation of ketones.

Absolute handedness control of oligoamide double helices by chiral oxazolylaniline induction

Aromatic oligoamide double helices bearing a chiral oxazolylaniline moiety were synthesized and their helix handedness was completely controlled (de > 99%).

Significant Enhancement of Circularly Polarized Luminescence Dissymmetry Factors in Quinoline Oligoamide Foldamers with Absolute Helicity

When S- or R- oxazolylaniline enantiomers were attached to achiral quinoline oligoamide foldamers (QOFs), a single diastereomerically pure P- or M-handed foldamer was observed and exhibits negative or positive circularly polarized luminescence with the emission dissymmetry factors | g_lum| up to 0.038, which is significantly larger than that of QOF with incomplete chiral induction. More importantly, the CPL dissymmetry factors, together with the absorption dissymmetry factors, are enhanced with increases in the lengths of QOFs.
