Abstract

Attachment of chiral auxiliaries to 2-benzoyladamantane-2-carboxylic acid, either covalently through ester formation with optically pure alcohols, or ionically via salt formation with optically pure amines, leads to substrates whose irradiation in the crystalline state affords chiral rearranged photoproducts in greater than or equal to 96% diastereo- and enantiomeric excess.
