| Abstract
| - A novel synthetic basic resolving agent, cis-1-aminobenz[f]indan-2-ol (ABI), was rationally designedby introducing effective CH/π interaction sites to cis-1-aminoindan-2-ol (AI), whose chiral recognitionability has been reported from our laboratory. ABI was applicable to a wide variety of racemicarylalkanoic acids and showed moderate to excellent chiral recognition ability, which was obviouslyhigher than that of AI. The fundamental and important role of CH/π interactions, such as tunableCH(sp2)/π and CH(sp3)/π interactions, in the chiral recognition by ABI was revealed by X-raycrystallographic study.
