Utility of osmium(II) in the catalysis of asymmetric diels-alder reactions
Faller
, p. 697 - 699 (2001)
Half-sandwich complexes of osmium(II) comprising either (S)-BINAP or (S)-BINPO can be used to prepare formally dipositive 16-electron Lewis acidic species. These in turn can be used to catalyze the Diels-Alder condensation of either methacrolein or ethyla
