Circular dichroism studies of imide derivatives of amines. 1976

V Ghislandi, and A La Manna

Circular dichroism curves have been measured for phthaloyl-, maleyl- and itaconyl-derivatives of a number of amines having a general formula R--CH(NH2)--R' (in which R and R' are alkyl-, aryl- or cyclohexyl-groups) and of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthylamine. We conclude that the determination of absolute configuration of amines examined can be made on the basis of C.D. curves of their phthaloyl-, maleyl- and itaconyl-derivatives, referring to that portion of the curve relating to the imide chromophore absorption.
