General description

(1S,2R)-(-)-cis-1-Amino-2-indanol is a main constituent of indinavir, a potent HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) protease inhibitor.

Application

1S,2R)-(-)-cis-1-Amino-2-indanol may be used to prepare:
  • (-)-1,2,5,6-Tetrahydropyridine by reacting with methyl (E,E)-4-oxo-2-[(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)vinyl}but-2-enoate.
  • Oxazaborolidine catalysts, which can catalyze the asymmetric reduction of aromatic ketones with high enantioselectivity.
  • (RS,1S,2R)-(-)-2,4,6-Trimethylbenzenesulfinic acid 1-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonylamino)indan-2-yl ester.
Used to prepare a mannitol-based scaffold in the study of Plasmepsin II inhibition. Aspartic proteases such as plasmepsins I and II are of interest as targets for new, potential anti-malarials.

Physical properties

Useful chiral ligand for asymmetric synthesis.
