A novel class of chiral multidentate ligands have been designed and synthesized from the highly important classic ligand 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and amino acids. The ligands were proven to be able to coordinate with copper ion by forming a novel chiral copper complex, the structure of which was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
