Abstract
Optically active derivatives of glycidol are disclosed. These novel compounds, (2S) and (2R) glycidyl m-nitrobenzenesulfonate and (2S) and (2R) glycidyl p-chlorobenzenesulfonate can be readily crystallized to high enantiomeric purity. Their use in other synthesis reactions is also described.
