Abstract

A novel tunable multi-chiral supramolecular host system was developed from non-chiral dicarboxylic acid and (1R, 2R)-diphenylethylenediamine via chirality transfer, which enabled highly efficient optical resolution of secondary alkyl alcohols by simple crystallization of host compounds from alcohol solution.
