L-Dibenzoyl tartaric acid was mono-esterified with benzyl alcohol, and then chlorinated with SOCl(2) to give (2S,3S)-1-(benzyloxy)-4-chloro-1,4-dioxobutane-2,3-diyl dibenzoate (Selector 1). (1R,2R)-1,2-Diphenylethylenediamine was mono-functionalized with phenyl isocyanate and phenylene diisocyanate in sequence to give (1R,2R)-1,2-diphenyl-2-(3-phenylureido)ethyl 4- isocyanatophenylurea (Selector 2). Two brush-type chiral

A series of Pt(II) complexes containing 1,2-diphenylethylenediamine (stien) isomers were synthesized and tested for their antitumor activity against leukemia L1210. Among the Pt(II) complexes examined water-soluble Pt(II) complexes with sulfate, nitrate and D-glucuronate ions as leaving groups exhibited relatively high

In a two-component columnar host system composed of racemic (rac)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine and rac-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid, a cavity tuning mechanism resulted from changes in the structure of the columns using a specific combination of the following four molecules: (1R,2R)-1, (1S,2S)-1, (R)-2, and (S)-2.

Polymer-supported chiral ligands 9 and 17 were prepared based on Noyori's (1S,2S)- or (1R,2R)-N-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine. The combination with [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 has been shown to exhibit high activities and enantioselectivities for heterogeneous asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones (19a-c) with formic acid-triethylamine azeotrope
