Abstract
The chiral 4-(α-hydroxy-benzyl)-2,6-di-tert. butyl-phenoxyl has been examined in its racemic form in toluene and carbontetrachloride. On adding of chiral auxiliaries (R)-resp. (S)-N,N-dimethyl-1-phenylethylamine or (S)-phenylethyl-amine two different couplings of the β-proton are recorded by ENDOR spectroscopy. The experimental results are interpreted by a ternary equilibrium between radical, solvent and auxiliary. A model for the suggested association processes is given and equilibrium constants and corresponding enthalpies are calculated.
