Preparation and reactivity of the optically active silicon–manganese compound (–)-[(π-methylcyclopentadienyl) Mn(CO)2(H)SiMePh(α-naphthyl)]
Abstract
Cleavage of the complex (–)-[(π-MeCp)Mn(CO)2(H)SiMePh(α-Np)] by electrophiles and nucleophiles may occur in three ways: electrophilic cleavage of the Mn–Si bond with retention of configuration at Si, nucleophilic attack at Mn also with retention of configuration, and nucleophilic attack at Si with inversion of configuration.
