Abstract

We report here our preliminary work that is designed to address the enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral, enantiomerically pure, calix [4] resorcinarene derivatives by the enantioselective generation of diastereoisomerically pure tetrakis (benzoxazines) followed by the removal of the chiral auxiliary. The key to our strategy involves the alkylation of the four residual phenolic groups that are present in diastereoisomerically and ...
