Summary
Chiral glycidyl ethers containing biphenyl side groups have been synthesized starting from optically active isopropylidene glycidol. The anisotropic moiety can be bound to the oxirane ring either directly or through flexible spacers of varying length. Details relevant to the above reactions and to the reaction sequences adopted to get the corresponding glycidyl ethers are presented.
