(S)-1-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanol is a chiral alcohol that has been shown to be an effective catalyst for the hydrolysis of ketones. The reaction time is determined by the cavity of the ligand, which interacts with the reactant and affects its orientation. The enantiomeric purity is dependent on the linker and can be increased by adding a diphosphine ligand to increase steric hindrance. The kinetic properties of this compound have been studied extensively and show significant effects on the rate of reaction depending on whether amines or nitriles are used as reactants.
