摘要

The synthesis and characterization of a new chiral rhodium N-heterocyclic carbene complex, Rh (IBiox [(−)-menthyl](CO) 2Cl, is reported. In addition, the very high enantioselectivity exhibited by this complex, as a catalyst for the asymmetric hydroarylation of azabicycles, is demonstrated and applied to the synthesis of epibatidine.
