Reactions

Condensation of this aldehyde with various diamines gives various salen ligands, which are popular for catalysis. For example, the enantiopure ligand for Jacobsen's catalyst may be prepared from the appropriate 1,2-diaminocyclohexane. The catalyst is obtained by further reaction with manganese(II) acetate and atmospheric oxygen in the presence of a chloride source.[1]
