Description

L-phenylglycinol is a chiral compound that is synthesized by the reaction of phenylglycinol with hydroxide solution in the presence of an asymmetric synthesis catalyst. It is used as a precursor to chiral amides and aziridines, which are important for addressing the need for enantiopure compounds. The reaction mechanism involves nucleophilic substitution at the amino function, which can be catalyzed by copper complexes in solution. This reaction can also be monitored using liquid chromatography methods.
