Abstract :
(1R,2S)-Ephedrine and norephedrine derived N-cyanomethyl-β-chloro amines react with tri-, tetra- and penta-ethylene glycol to stereoselectively give the corresponding amino ethers. Further transformation into chiral monoaza 12-, 15- and 18-crown-4, -5 and -6 ethers was realized in three steps and good overall yields by: (i) mesylation, (ii) deprotection of the N-cyanomethyl group and (iii) intramolecular alkylation. Binding affinities of these azacrown ethers for alkali cations was studied by FAB-MS.
