The racemic (6-cyclo-heptadienyl)Fe(CO)3+ cation ((±)-7), prepared from cyclooctatetraene, was treated with a variety of carbon and heteroatom nucleophiles. Attack took place at the less hindered C1 dienyl carbon and decomplexation of the (cycloheptadiene)Fe(CO) 3 complexes gave products rich in functionality for further synthetic manipulation. In particular, a seven-step route was developed from racemic (6-styryl-2,4-cycloheptadien-1-yl)phthalimide ((±)-9 d) to afford the optically active aminocycloheptitols (-)-20 and (+)-20. And the cycloheptitol is The racemic [(6-cycloheptadienyl)Fe(CO)3]+ cation, prepared from cyclooctatetraene, reacts with a variety of carbon and heteroatom nucleophiles to afford (1,6-disubstituted heptadiene)FeCO3 complexes. Decomplexation and further synthetic manipulation leads to the optically active aminocycloheptitols (-)-1 and (+)-1 in 15.7 and 12.2 % overall yields from cyclooctatetraene (see scheme).
