(1S)-(+)-Camphor-10-sulphonic acid Usage And Synthesis

Synthesis

(1S)-(+)-Camphor-10-sulphonic acid can be obtained from natural camphor by brominated sulfonation .

Chemical Properties

white to light beige powder

Uses

Used as a resolving agent, and as a catalyst for coupling dipeptides.

Uses

(1S)-(+)-Camphor-10-sulfonic acid is used as stabilizer. (+)-(1S)-camphor-10-sulfonic acid being a very effective resolving agent. . Chiral polyaniline(PANI) nanofibers were synthesized via facilely potentiostatic electropolymerization method without template in the presence of(1S)-(+)camphor-10-sulfonic acid(D-CSA) or(1R)-(-)camphor-10-sulfonic acid(L-CSA) as the dopant. Synthesis of QUATs derived from (1S)-(+)camphor-10-sulfonic acid.

Definition

ChEBI: (S)-camphorsulfonic acid is the S enantiomer of camphorsulfonic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a (S)-camphorsulfonate. It is an enantiomer of a (R)-camphorsulfonic acid.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the acid from ethyl acetate and dry it under vacuum (deliquescent). [Loudon J Chem Soc 823 1933, Komppa J Prakt Chem 162 19 1943, Beilstein 11 IV 642.] See above for RS-isomer.
