Abstract

Spontaneous resolution of mandelic acid occurred upon coordination via stereochemical control on the metal centres. The ‘ideal’ octahedral coordination geometry with bis-chelation in cis-conformation is critical for chiral discrimination. The successful induction of homochiral packing of the mandelates by five different metals suggests general applicability of stereochemical control on the resolution of the chiral organic compounds.
