Photolytic induction of the asymmetric catalytic complexation of prochiral cyclohexa-1,3-dienes by the tricarbonyliron fragment1
Abstract
Photolytic induction of the asymmetric catalytic complexation of prochiral cyclohexa-1,3-dienes by the tricarbonyliron fragment using a camphor-derived azadiene catalyst provides the corresponding tricarbonyliron complexes quantitatively in up to 86% ee.
