Syntheses photochimiques diastereoselectives de complexes a liaison fer-metal du groupe 14

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0022-328X(88)80053-6

The diastereomeric Fe^*(MR3)(CO)(P^*R¹R²R³)Cp complexes (M = Si, Ge and Sn, R = aryl or methyl) are synthesized by photolysis of the prochiral Fe(MR3)(CO)2Cp, precursors in the presence of the corresponding racemic phosphorus(III) ligands.Asymmetric induction at iron is observed if the phosphorus atom is bound to a group containing a specific heteroatom (nitrogen or oxygen).
