Abstract
On the basis of spectroscopic and structural studies a full catalytic cycle is proposed for the Diels-Alder reaction between methacrolein an d cyclopentadiene when the new chiral aquo-complexes (R-Ru, S-Ru)-[(et a(6)-p-cymene)Ru(PN)(H2O)][SbF6](2) {PN = (3aS, hosphinophenyl)-3a,8a- dihydroindane[1,2-d]oxazole} are used as catalysts.
