Abstract
A novel N,N ' -bis(sulfinyl)amidine ligand has been synthesized from optica lly pure (R)-tert-butanesulfinamide. Deprotonation of this ligand and stirr ing with (Rh(COD)Cl-2) afford a structurally unique homochiral N,S-bonded m etallocycle with rhodium(I). This is the first reported example of a comple x involving a bis(sulfinyl)amidinate ligand and any transition metal center .
