COMPLEMENTARY REGIOSELECTION IN NUCLEOPHILE ADDITIONS TO CATIONIC ETA-5-CYCLOHEXADIENYL IRON COMPLEXES

1-Alkoxy and 1-acetoxy substituted tricarbonyl(eta-5-cyclohexadienyl)iron(1+) complexes undergo reactions with nucleophiles at opposite ends of the pi-system in a reversal of regiocontrol that offers novel possibilities for complementary control strategies in applications in asymmetric synthesis, si...

Summary:1-Alkoxy and 1-acetoxy substituted tricarbonyl(eta-5-cyclohexadienyl)iron(1+) complexes undergo reactions with nucleophiles at opposite ends of the pi-system in a reversal of regiocontrol that offers novel possibilities for complementary control strategies in applications in asymmetric synthesis, since the two series of complexes can be obtained from the same precursor.
