title: A new hydrogen-bonding motif for chiral recognition in the diastereomeric salts of racemic 1-phenylethylamine derivatives with enantiopure O-ethyl phenylphosphonothioic acid.
abstract: An enantiopure phosphonothioic acid showed a unique and superior chiral recognition ability, arising from its P-stereogenicity, for racemic 1-phenylethylamine derivatives through diastereomeric crystallization. Spherical molecular clusters, associated by hydrogen bonds and CH/pi interactions, aggregated with high symmetry in the less-soluble diastereomeric salts.
