Abstract

2,2-Dimethyl-1-(1-naphthyl)propanol was synthesized and the corresponding enantiomers were isolated by chiral HPLC. These enantiomers gave diastereoisomeric carbamates by reaction with (S)-(-)-1-phenylethylisocyanate, which were studied by NMR. The comparison of NMR data and molecular mechanics calculations allowed us to determine the absolute configuration of corresponding alcohols. Finally, x-ray results were in agreement with the absolute configuration proposed from the NMR spectra. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
