Abstract

An unusual example of diastereoselectivity has been observed in Cu(κ3-P,C,P′-1)X complexes where 1 is an asymmetric tridentate ligand containing a bicyclic NHC framework and X is a halide. When X is Cl−, the SCu isomer is formed selectively whereas when X = I− the RCu diastereomer is preferred.
