Chiroptical sensing of citronellal: systematic development of a stereodynamic probe using the concept of isostericity

Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Nov 25;48(91):11226-8. doi: 10.1039/c2cc36267h. Epub 2012 Oct 12.

Abstract

A rationally designed stereodynamic ICD probe carrying two terminal amino functions for chemo- and enantioselective sensing of citronellal is introduced. The sensor shows strong Cotton effects upon diimine formation which can be used for accurate ee determination.
