The enantiomerically pure tetradentate ligand H2L {2,2′-[trans-(R,R)-1,2-cyclohexanediylbis(N-methyl-aminomethyl)]diphenol} forms a neutral dioxomolybdenum(VI) complex, which was isolated as {2,2′-[trans-(R,R)-1,2-cyclohexanediylbis(N-methylami

Synthetic routes to aluminium ethyl complexes supported by chiral tetradentate phenoxyamine (salan-type) ligands [Al(OC6H 2(R-O-R4)CH2)2{CH3N(C 6H10)NCH3}-C2H5] (4, 7: R = H; 5, 8: R = Cl; 6, 9: R = CH3) are reported. Enantiomerically pure salan ligands 1-3 with (R,R) configurations at their cyclohexane rings afforded the complexes 4, 5, and 6 as mixtures of two diastereoisomers (a and b). Each diastereoisomer a was, as determined by X-ray analysis, monomeric with a five-coordinated aluminium central core in the solid state, adopting a cis-(O,O) and cis-(Me,Me) ligand geometry. From the results of variabletemperature (VT) 1H NMR in the tern-perature range of 220-335 K, 1H- 1H NOESY at 220K, and diffusion-ordered spectroscopy (DOSY), it is concluded that each diastereoisomer b is also monomeric with a five-coordinated aluminium central core. The geometry is intermediate between square pyramidal with a cis-(O,O), trans-(Me,Me) ligand disposition and trigonal bipyramidal with a rrans-(O,O) and trans(Me,Me) disposition. A slow exchange between these two geometries at 220 K was indicated by 1H-1H NOESY NMR. In the presence of propan-2-ol as an initiator, enantiomerically pure (R,R) complexes 4-6 and their racemic mixtures 7-9 were efficient catalysts in the ring-opening polymerization of lactide (LA). Polylactide materials ranging from isotactically biased (Pm up to 0.66) to medium heterotactic (P r up to 0.73) were obtained from rac-lactide, and syndiotactically biased polylactide (Pr up to 0.70) from wicso-lactide. Kinetic studies revealed that the polymerization of (S,S)-LA in the presence of 4/propan-2-ol had a much higher polymerization rate than (R,R)-LA polymerization (kss/kRR = 10.1).
