Chemical conversions, optical comparisons, and chiroptical measurements (CD) were employed to determine the absolute configuration of the enantiomers of 5-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (HPPH) (1b and 1c). Studies on a key intermediate, (-)-2-cyclohexyl-2-phenylglycine (5b), led to the reexamination of the well-known rule of Clough-Lutz-Jirgensons. Optical comparisons by means of derivatization into hydantoins and 3-phenyl-2-thiohydantoins (application of Freudenberg's rule of shift) gave conclusions which were consistent with chiroptical measurements on the above compounds. Thus, (-)-HPPH (1c), the major metabolite of 5,5-diphenylhydantoin in man, has the S configuration. This assignment was confirmed by X-ray single-crystal structure analysis of (+)-HPPH 10-(+)-camphorsulfonate (18b). |
