N-BENZYLCINCHONIDINIUM BROMIDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

N-Benzylcinchonidinium bromide (BCDBr) can be used:

• To prepare various 4-(bromomethyl)benzenesulfonamides, which are employed as catalysts for asymmetric benzylation reactions.
• As a phase transfer catalyst in the synthesis of organogelators via Michael addition reaction.
• To catalyze the enantioselective alkylation of tert-butyl glycinate-benzophenone Schiff base furnishing the corresponding chiral α-amino acid.
• To resolve symmetric biaryldiols via formation of inclusion complex with diols.

General Description

N-Benzylcinchonidinium bromide is a chiral phase-transfer catalyst (PTC).
