(R)-O-ARYLLACTIC ACIDS - CONVENIENT CHIRAL SOLVATING AGENTS FOR DIRECT H-1-NMR DETERMINATION OF THE ENANTIOMERIC COMPOSITION OF AMINES AND AMINO-ALCOHOLS
(R)-O-(4-Chloro-2-methylphenyl)- and (R)-O-(2-naphthyl)lactic acids are very efficent chiral solvating agents for the direct H-1 NMR assay of the enantiomeric composition especially for primary and secondary amines and significant amino alcohols such as propranalol and fluoxetine.
