Cw. Ong et Rh. Hsu, SELECTIVE RECOGNITION OF DIASTEREOISOMERIC TRICARBONYL(ISOBORNOXYCYCLOHEXA-1,3-DIENYLIUM)IRON COMPLEXES WITH ACHIRAL NUCLEOPHILES, Organometallics, 13(10), 1994, pp. 3952-3955
The first example is reported for the selective reaction of a diastere
oisomeric mixture of bonyl(2-isobornoxy-5-methylcyclohexadienylium)iro
n hexafluorophosphate with achiral potassium-dimethyl malonate to give
the highly enantiomerically enriched diene complex 6 (84% ee). The tw
o diastereoisomeric complexes 3 and 4 showed considerable differences
in their H-1 NMR chemical shifts.
