, p. 2573 - 2576 (2003)
Under microwave irradiation and without solvent, racemic and optically pure mandelic acid readily condenses with aldehydes and ketones to give 2-alkyl substituted 5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-ones in good yield.

The enantiomers of mandelic acid have each been converted into 1,3-dioxolan-4-one derivatives. Formation of the planar chiral η6-arene)tricarbonylchromium complexes has enabled an investigation of their potential to promote discrimination betwe
