(1S,2S)-(-)-1,2-Diphenyl-1,2-ethanediamine

(1S,2S)-(-)-1,2-Diphenyl-1,2-ethanediamine solvation agent, For synthesis of enantiopure ethylenediamines by chirality transfer (condensation with diketones followed by reductive cleavage), Co-catalyst in the Ru catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of aromatic ketones, Versatile ligand for the formation of metal complexes.

Used in the synthesis of chiral tropocoronands which have potential utility in asymmetric catalysis
