CHALCOGEN-BASED CHIRAL REAGENTS AND METHOD FOR NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE DETECTION OF STEREOCHEMICAL ASSIGNMENTS AND ENANTIOMERIC RATIOS AND METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING SAID REAGENTS
CHALCOGEN-BASED CHIRAL REAGENTS AND METHOD FOR NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE DETECTION OF STEREOCHEMICAL ASSIGNMENTS AND ENANTIOMERIC RATIOS AND METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING SAID REAGENTS
Selenium reagents when coupled to a compound containing an asymmetric carbon atom can be used in a highly sensitive method for determination of enantiomeric purity and for stereochemical assignment. Preferred reagents include a selenocarbonyl moiety (Se=C) and a reactive center for coupling to the compound of interest. Particularly preferred selenocarbonyls for use in the invention are chiral selenooxazolidinones of formula (I), wherein R?2, R3, R4 and R5? are selected from among hydrogen, alkyl of up to 10 carbons and aryl having up to 12 carbon atoms in the ring system. The substituent R1 is selected to facilitate the formation of a bond between the nitrogen atom of the selenooxazolidinone reagent and the compound of interest. Since the ability of the reagent to resolve enantiomers decreases as the number of bonds between the selenium and the asymmetric carbon increases, the reactive center is preferably located no more than three bonds from the selenium atom.
