(4S,8S)-4,8-bis(diphenylmethyl)-1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4,4,0]dec-5-ene; a hindered, chiral, bicyclic guanidine base with effective C 2-symmetry

Abstract
The title compound 5 is prepared from L-methionine and investigated by computational, NMR spectroscopic and other techniques; the results indicate that the N/NH groups of 5 and its conjugate acid occupy hindered, chiral environments due to the disposition of the bulky diphenylmethyl substituents.
