Used as a chiral ligand in asymmetric catalysis, particularly in enantioselective organic transformations such as hydrogenation and cyclopropanation reactions. Its oxazoline rings coordinate with transition metals like rhodium or copper, forming complexes that induce high enantioselectivity in the synthesis of chiral molecules. Commonly applied in pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries where stereochemical control is critical. Also employed in research for developing new catalytic systems and studying reaction mechanisms involving chiral environments.
