Application
This chiral isothiourea homobenzotetramisole ((R)-HBTM) developed by the Birman lab is an organocatalyst that has been used for kinetic resolution, determination of absolute configuration, and nucleophile-catalysed, Michael–aldol-b-lactonization (NCMAL). This same product was previously listed as L511730, and the complementary (S)-HBTM organocatalyst (900542) is also available.

A method for determining the absolute configuration of β-chiral primary alcohols has been developed. Enantioenriched alcohols were acylated in the presence of either enantiomer of the enantioselective acylation catalyst HBTM, and the faster reaction was determined by measuring product conversion

Organic letters, 18(14), 3454-3457 (2016-07-08)
A novel, reagent-free catalytic transformation of α,β-unsaturated thioesters into 2-substituted thiochromenes has been developed, with carbon dioxide as the only byproduct. Amidine-based catalysts, particularly homobenzotetramisole and its analogues, achieve high enantioselectivities and yields in this process.

A new implementation of the competing enantioselective conversion (CEC) method was developed to qualitatively determine the absolute configuration of enantioenriched secondary alcohols using thin-layer chromatography. The entire process for the method requires approximately 60 min and utilizes micromole quantities of

A simple method for determining the absolute configuration of oxazolidinones, lactams, and their derivatives using kinetic resolution catalysts is described. The optically pure substrates were acylated using the (S)-HBTM and the (R)-HBTM catalyst, and the faster reaction was determined. An
