Used in advanced organic synthesis as a chiral scaffold for asymmetric catalysis. Its rigid, complex macrocyclic structure with multiple stereogenic centers makes it valuable in the development of enantioselective reactions, particularly in pharmaceutical research where stereochemical control is critical. The compound’s fused isoquinoline and benzenacyclooctaphane framework allows for strong substrate binding and high selectivity in catalytic processes. It has been employed in the synthesis of bioactive natural products and as a template for designing novel catalysts in academic and industrial settings.
