ferrocenealdehyde have been achieved. Ferrocenyl P,N ligand
with multiple chirality has been synthesised involving a highly
diastereoselective ortholithiation (de > 99), adding new class of
privileged ligands to the current repertoire. A short synthesis of
novel ferrocenyl a-dehydro-b-peptides, a new entry for de novo
peptide design has also been reported herein. Efforts to syn-
thesise and study the catalytic activity of analogues ligands from
ferrocenyl MBH adducts are in progress.
