Lj. Charbonniere et al., SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE AND RESOLUTION OF A DINUCLEAR CO-III TRIPLE-HELIX, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (12), 1994, pp. 1419-1420
For the first time a helical dinuclear metal complex has been separate
d into enantiomers by transformation of a labile cobalt(ii) triple-hel
ical complex into the kinetically stable cobalt(iir) complex [CO2(2a)(
3)](6+) which has been characterized structurally and resolved by chro
matography.
