Abstract

0002-7863 I91 I1 5 13-6268S02. 50lO newed interest in the development of early-transition- metal chemistry for enantioselective synthesis.'However, the multistep synthesis and resolution of these chiral metallocenes presents a severe limitation in the application of these complexes for stoichiometric organic transformations; practical applications will likely require catalytic methods. As part of our efforts to develop the catalytic chemistry of group ...
