Water soluble lanthanoid benzoate complexes for the kinetic separation of cis/trans-limonene oxide

A new class of water soluble, environmentally friendly, lanthanoid 3,5-diacetamidobenzoate complexes (Ln = La, Gd, Yb) have been synthesized. The La and Gd complexes selectively catalyse hydrolysis of the cis-isomer of limonene oxide allowing for the separation of the trans-isomer (> 98:2 dr)...
