Abstract
A study related to isomerism brought about by the two different chelat ion modes of the residual double bond resulting from the intramolecula r Pauson-Khand reaction in [(diallylamino) alkynylcarbene] tungsten co mplexes was undertaken. The presence of a stereogenic center on the ca rbene ligand in the cycloadduct caused a clear difference in energy be tween the two diastereomeric forms resulting from alkene chelation. Th e energy barrier involved in their interconversion was determined by m eans of dynamic HPLC (D-HPLC) experiments, and its relative high value was related to the difficulty of the inversion at the nitrogen center due to structural rigidity.
