Abstract
A chiral crystal of retgersite, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, acts as a chiral initiator of asymmetric autocatalysis, affording highly enantiomerically enriched pyrimidyl alkanols.
Highlights
Retgersite, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, forms a chiral crystal with space group P41212 or P43212
A chiral crystal of nickel sulfate hexahydrate was found to act as a chiral initiator of asymmetric autocatalysis, affording highly enantiomerically enriched pyrimidyl alkanols with the corresponding absolute configurations
We report asymmetric induction using chiral crystals of nickel sulfate hexahydrate in conjunction with asymmetric autocatalysis (Scheme 1)
Summary
Asymmetric induction by retgersite, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, in conjunction with asymmetric autocatalysis Retgersite, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, forms a chiral crystal with space group P41212 or P43212. A chiral crystal of nickel sulfate hexahydrate was found to act as a chiral initiator of asymmetric autocatalysis, affording highly enantiomerically enriched pyrimidyl alkanols with the corresponding absolute configurations. Retgersite, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, is a naturally occurring mineral and exhibits enantiomorphism.
