摘要:
The chiral bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphino MeO-Biphep complex Ru(OAc)(2)(1a), with two complexed P donors, reacts with MeLi to give Ru(Me)(2)(1a), in which only one P atom is coordinated together with an arene eta(6)-C6H3 moiety derived from one of the biaryl rings. This is an unprecedented binding mode for this type of chiral complex.
