Abstract

Thin interdigitated films composed of a long-chain, water-insoluble chiral acid (p -pentadecylmandelic acid of absolute configuration R ) and a water-soluble chiral base (phenylethylamine, R′ ) were constructed at the air-solution interface. The ( R, R′ ) structure was characterized to near-atomic resolution by grazing-incidence x-ray diffraction (GIXD). The two diastereomeric systems, ( R, R′ ) and ( R, S′ ), demonstrate similar surface pressure-molecular area isotherms, but their structures are completely different on the molecular level, as monitored by GIXD. Complementary data on these two architectures were provided by atomic force microscopy.

4. We synthesized ( R )- p -pentadecylmandelic acid by the Friedel-Craft reaction of pentadecyl benzene with oxalyl chloride in chloroform at 0° to 5°C to yield the α-keto acid [O. Itoh et al . Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn. 57 810 (1984)]. The latter was esterified to the corresponding methoxy ester and subsequently reduced by the NaBH 4 ( R R )tartaric acid complex according to the method of H. Iwagami et al. [ ibid. 64 175 (1991)] to yield ( R )- p -pentadecyl methyl mandelate with an enantiomeric excess (ee) of 57%. We determined this value by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis using the tris [3-(trifluoromethylhydroxymethylene)-(+)camphorato]europium(III) complex. The compound was hydrolyzed to the corresponding acid and then the optical purity was enhanced up to 97% ee by cocrystallization with commercially available R -PEA. The optical purity was checked by NMR and circular dichroism spectra: [α] D 25 = −63.2 (C = 1.01 g/liter tetrahydrofuran).

5. The isotherms were measured from A = 100 to 5 Å 2 per molecule.
