Used in organic synthesis as a chiral catalyst for asymmetric transformations, particularly in enantioselective reductions and cyclization reactions. Exhibits high selectivity in catalyzing carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions, making it valuable in the preparation of complex natural products and pharmaceutical intermediates. Its rigid meso structure enhances stereocontrol, improving yield and optical purity in target molecule synthesis. Also applied in materials science for designing chiral sensors and functional supramolecular systems.
