Synthesis of chiral helical 1,3-oxazines.

A series of novel 1,3-oxazines were prepared to construct a helical framework. The 1,3-oxazine attached to the phenanthrene unit showed a small bite angle θ (∼12°), while the units attached to [4]helicene showed a larger θ (∼35°) and exhibited helical isomers at ambient conditions. The diastereomers of the third type of helicene-like bis-oxazine attached to binaphthyl were easily separable and showed good thermal stability. All four diastereomers of bis-helicene were synthesized, and their absolute configuration was established.
