title: A chiral metallacyclophane for asymmetric catalysis.
abstract: Chiral metallacyclophanes were self-assembled from cis-(PEt3)2PtCl2 and enantiopure atropisomeric 1,1'-bina-phthyl-6,6'-bis(acetylenes) and used in highly enantioselective catalytic diethylzinc additions to aldehydes to afford chiral secondary alcohols.
