Abstract

A synthesis of chiral hydrocarbons having C1 axis and C3 symmetry, which owe their chirality due to asymmetrical distribution of 12C/13C isotopes, is reported. Their absolute configurations assigned using the vibrational circular dichroism technique conform with those deduced from the absolute configurations of the parent α-formyl cyclopropanes.
