title: Diastereoselective ruthenium-Cp complexation of enantiopure arene compounds possessing stereogenic benzylic alcohol functionalities.
abstract: [reaction--see text] Enantiopure (arene)ruthenium compounds possessing a stereogenic benzylic alcohol functionality were stereoselectively synthesized by diastereoselective ruthenium-Cp complexation to a distinct arene face. This diastereoselective ruthenium-Cp complexation was further extended to biaryl compounds linked with a six-membered lactone bridge for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure, axially chiral biaryls.
