Abstract

A series of chiral complexes of the type [RuX(CO)L(triphos)]X′ (X,X′ = anions, L = neutral ligands, triphos = 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane) has been synthesized, and the chemistry studied. The compound [RuMe(CO)(CNBut)(triphos)] PF6 has been resolved, and the absolute configurations of the (+)-enantiomer have been determined.
