Arene ruthenium complexes with pyridyloxazolines: synthesis and applications as asymmetric catalysts for Diels–Alder reactions†
Abstract
Reaction of the dimers [RuCl2(arene)]2 with pyridyloxazolines (pymox) gave complexes [RuCl(pymox)(arene)][SbF6] 1–12 which have been fully characterised. Using chiral
