Ease to Challenges in Achieving Successful Synthesized Schiff Base, Chirality, and Application as Antibacterial Agent
Table 1
Asymmetric nitro aldol (Henry) reaction between nitromethane and p-nitrobenzaldehyde catalyzed by chiral Schiff base [22].
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
aAll reactions were performed on a 0.2 mmol scale of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde in the mixture of 0.8 ml of ethanol and 0.6 ml of nitromethane. bAfter purification with thin layer chromatography (TLC), ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (30 : 70) Rf: 0.36, while literature gave 0.34. cDetermined by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an OD column. dDetermined by comparing HPLC elution order of the enantiomers with a genuine sample according to the literature and that by HP chiral detectors [22]. OTf is the triflate group, identified by the systematic name trifluoromethanesulfonate. |
