Chiral molecules play a very important role in biological systems, and more and more chiral drugs are used in the treatment of diseases. Mandelic acid (MA) is an important chiral starting substance or the key intermediate of some chiral drugs, and the rapid detection of its chiral purity is very important in the synthesis, separation and detection of drugs. In this study, we developed a method for rapid determination of chiral purity of MA by Raman spectroscopy, and measured a series of Raman spectra of different chiral MA. Through the analysis, it is found that the OH stretching vibration peak can be used to identify the components of chiral molecules, and the enantiomeric excess (ee value) obtained is in good agreement with the real value, and the error is about 5%. The experimental detection speed is fast and the efficiency is high. Our work firstly provides a new idea for the purity detection of chiral molecules by the original Raman spectrum.

Achieving superior circularly polarized luminescence brightness () is an important subject and continuous challenge for chiroptical materials. Herein, by applying a binary molecular design for the synthesis of chiral organo-Tb molecules, a novel pair of mononuclear chiral -pyrazolate-Tb enantiomers, [Tb(PMIP)(,-Ph-PyBox)] () and [Tb(PMIP)(,-Ph-PyBox)] (), have been synthesized and characterized. The three 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-(isobutyryl)-5-pyrazolone () ligands play the role of efficient luminescence sensitizers and strong light-harvesting antennas, while the enantiopure 2,6-bis(4-phenyl-2-oxazolin-2-yl) pyridine ligand (/) is employed as the strong point-chiral inducer.

Both enantiomers of 2-ethylquinazolin-4-ones bearing -CHO/CDO and CHO/CHO phenyl groups at the N3 position were prepared. These are isotopic atropisomeric compounds based on a remote and conformationally flexible H/D and C/C discrimination, and it was found that a CHCl solution of -CHO/CDO derivative shows a slight specific optical rotation. Furthermore, diastereomeric quinazolinone derivatives bearing a chiral carbon were prepared, and their stereochemical purities and rotational stability as well as the isotopic atropisomerism were verified by H NMR and chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyses.

Astaxanthin (AST) is a high-value antioxidant, and its efficient isolation and utilization are challenging owing to the presence of different stereoisomers from various sources. In the present study, a semi-preparative HPLC method for the efficient separation of AST stereoisomers using a Chiralpak IC chiral column with good loading capacity and chiral recognition ability was successfully developed. The mobile phase was methanol-methyl -butyl ether (90 : 10, v/v), with a flow rate of 3.

Article Synopsis
- Chiral nitrogen-containing compounds are essential in various industries, but their synthesis can be challenging due to a vast range of chemical possibilities.
- This research details a selective method to create 3,3-diarylallyl phthalimides, which, when treated with iridium catalysts, transform into 3,3-diarylpropyl amines with very high enantioselectivity (98-99% ee).
- The study highlights the role of alkene purity in achieving high enantioselectivity and illustrates how the resulting chiral propylamines can be used to make important bioactive drugs like tolterodine and tolpropamine.
