Chiral recognition in metal-organic frameworks studied by solid-state NMR spectroscopy using chiral solvating agents

Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Nov 4;48(85):10484-6. doi: 10.1039/c2cc35366k.

Abstract

Recently, we have described the synthesis of chiral metal-organic frameworks iPr-ChirUMCM-1 and Bn-ChirUMCM-1 and their use in enantioselective separation. Here, we demonstrate for the first time the use of a chiral solvating agent (1-phenyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, TFPE) for chiral recognition in iPr-ChirUMCM-1 and Bn-ChirUMCM-1 by means of solid-state(13)C NMR spectroscopy.
