S. Fraysse et al., A stable chiral diolefin complex of Cu-I with predetermined configuration at the metal centre, NEW J CHEM, 25(11), 2001, pp. 1374-1375
A derivative of (S,S)-bis(pinene)bipyridine, which contains two terminal ol
efin groups, forms a mononuclear complex with Cu-I; X-ray crystallography s
hows the predetermination of configuration around the metal centre.
