Literature References
Forms a chiral adduct with diborane, useful for asymmetric hydroborations with high optical yields: J. Am. Chem. Soc., 99, 5514 (1977). Recrystallization of the borane adduct can be used to obtain a pure single diastereomer: J. Org. Chem., 49, 945 (1984). For reviews of the synthesis of pure enantiomers via chiral organoboranes, see: Acc. Chem. Res., 21, 287 (1988); and of asymmetric reduction with chiral organoboranes based on ɑ-pinene: Acc. Chem. Res., 25, 16 (1992).
Applications
(+)-alpha-Pinene is employed in the preparation of chiral hydroboration reagents. It is a bronchodilator in humans. α-Pinene is an anti-inflammatory and used as a broad-spectrum antibiotic.It exhibits activity as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, aiding memory. It is a biosynthetic base for CB2 ligands, such as HU-308.
