Used as a chiral catalyst in asymmetric synthesis, particularly in enantioselective carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions. Its rigid oxazole-quinoline framework enhances stereocontrol, making it valuable in pharmaceutical intermediates synthesis where high enantiomeric purity is required. Also employed in coordination chemistry as a ligand for transition metals like palladium and copper to promote asymmetric catalysis. Shows potential in developing luminescent materials due to the quinoline moiety’s photophysical properties when complexed with certain metal ions.
