Metal as Source of Chirality in Octahedral Complexes with Tripodal Tetradentate Ligands

The challenging control of the absolute configuration of chiral-at-metal complexes is efficiently achieved using the tripodal tetradentate ligand L. The optical resolution of rac-[RhCl2(¿4C, N, N', P-L)] mediated by (S)-a-phenylglycine provides access to enantiopure complexes of general formula...

Descripción
Sumario:The challenging control of the absolute configuration of chiral-at-metal complexes is efficiently achieved using the tripodal tetradentate ligand L. The optical resolution of rac-[RhCl2(¿4C, N, N', P-L)] mediated by (S)-a-phenylglycine provides access to enantiopure complexes of general formula [Rh(¿4C, N, N', P-L)A(Solv)][SbF6]n that enantioselectively catalyze the Diels-Alder reaction between methacrolein and HCp with enantiomeric ratio of up to >99/1. The nature of the active species, the origin of the enantioselectivity and mechanistic details are disclosed by means of NMR spectroscopy and DFT studies.
