Abstract

Abstract Understanding the interaction of chiral ligands, alkynes, and alkenes with cobaltcarbonyl sources is critical to learning more about the mechanism of the catalytic, asymmetric Pauson–Khand reaction. We have successfully characterized complexes of the type [Co 2 (alkyne)(binap)(CO) 4](BINAP=(1, 1′-binaphthalene)-2, 2′-diylbis (diphenylphosphine)) and shown that diastereomer interconversion occurs under Pauson ...
