The (�)-benzyl(methyl)(4-methylphenyl)(naphthalen-1-yl)arsonium cation has been synthesized and subsequently resolved by fractional crystallization of monohydrogen [R-(R*,R*)]-2,3-bis(benzoyloxy)- butanedioate salts. The separated diastereoisomers were converted into the corresponding optically active arsonium bromides by ion-exchange column chromatography. The absolute configuration of the arsonium cation exhibiting a positive rotation at 589 nm (sodium D line) has been established as (R) by single-crystal X-ray analysis of both the bromide and hexafluorophosphate salts. The arsonium bromide with [α]D + 54.8�(c, 0.62 in CH2Cl2) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 (D24, No.19) with a 22.472(8), b 15.724(7), c 12.585(5) � and U 4447(3) �3. The corresponding hexafluorophosphate with [α]D + 19.3� (c, 0.5 in CH2Cl2) crystallizes in the same space group with a 23.56(2), b 16.40(1), c 13.12(1) � and U 5067(6) � 3. Benzylidene transfer to benzaldehyde from the arsonium ylide derived from either of the arsonium salts produced optically pure (–)-(S)-methyl(4-methylphenyl)(naphthalen-1-yl)arsine, [α]D - 115.9� (c, 0.593 in CHCl3), and partly resolved [R-(R*,R*)]-2,3-diphenyloxiran.

Chiral phenylindanediamnine (+)-2 was synthesized starting from chiral phenyl-indanedicarboxylic acid by a Schmidt rearrangement. Ordered amine-acid AB-type monomers, 8 and 9, were also prepared by a controlled reaction of (+)-2 with diacid chlorides. Disordered and ordered polyamides were synthesized by the reaction of (+)-2 with dicarboxylic acids, and the self-condensation of 8 and 9, respectively. Both the ordered and disordered polyamides were soluble in various solvents. The polyamides composed of the same dicarboxylic acid prepared by the different routes showed the same circular dichroism spectra. X-ray diffraction of the polyamide films indicated that all of the polyamides were amorphous. The glass transition and decomposition temperatures ranged from 170 to 340°C and from 320 to 400 °C, respectively. Additionally, polyamides containing the same diacids displayed nearly equivalent physical properties.

The title spirocyclic dilactam (1S,7S)-7-methyl-6,9-diazatricyclo[6,3,0,01,6]tridecan-5,10-dione (I), a molecule designed to contain non-planar amide groups, has been synthesized from an optically active precursor of known absolute configuration. The relative and absolute configuration have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The conformation of the compound has been investigated by X-ray, 1H and 13C NMR, electronic and vibrational circular dichroism. The compound possesses moderately non-planar amide groups in the two rings of nonequal geometry. The electronic CD is dominated by inherent chirality of the amide chromophores. The dilactams I and II ((1S,6S)-6-methyl-5,8-diazatricyclo[6,3,0,01,5]undecan-4,9-dione – having five-membered rings) exhibit monosignate amide I VCD and strong VCD bands in the mid-ir region.
