Chem 250 GG
Abstract. 1,2 diaminocyclohexane was reacted with L-(+)-tartaric acid to yield
(R,R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane mono-(+)-tartrate salt. The tartrate salt was then
reacted with potassium carbonate and 3,5-di-tert-bu ....

Jacobsen utilized was [(R,R)-N,N'-Bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-
cyclohexanediaminato-(2-)]-manganese (III) chloride (Jacobsen's Catalyst).
(R,R) Jacobsen's Catalyst Jacobsen's catalyst opens up short pathways to
enantiomerically pure pharmacological and industrial products via the
synthetically versatile epoxy function .
In this paper, a synthesis of Jacobsen's catalyst is performed (Scheme
1). The synthesized catalyst is then reacted with an unfunctional ....
