Configurationally stable metal-centered chirality: stereospecific and regioselective rhodaacylation of alkynes controlled by the third generation of the [Cp′-P]H ligand
Abstract
The rhodium cationic complex
[[η5∶η1-{3-(NIM)Ind-P}
n = 2]Rh(CO)Me]BF4 (1) reacts with
1-phenylpropyne regioselectively and stereospecifically to afford the
alkenyl complex
[[η5∶η1-{3-(NIM)Ind-P}
n =
2]Rh{η2-OC(CH3)-
C(CH3)
CPh}]BF4 (2).
