title: Isolation and epimerization kinetics of the first diastereoisomer of an inherently chiral uranyl-salophen complex.
abstract: The first diastereoisomeric mixture of an inherently chiral uranyl-salophen complex was prepared using (S)-naproxen as a chiral derivatizing agent. Slow crystallization from diisopropyl ether-chloroform afforded one pure diastereoisomer in 45% yield. Kinetic studies allowed the determination of the epimerization rate. [reaction--see text]
