Abstract

A novel phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA)-induced intermolecular chiral biaryl coupling reaction has been accomplished using α-D-glucose derivatives as chiral templates.

  10. We followed the protocol of Meyers et al., while determining the ee of the biphenyl compound 3. According to them [ref. 5(d)] in such cases, HPLC was found to be a more reliable method for the determination of ee than by optical rotation. They encountered a discrepancy in the optical rotation of a similar compound.
