title: Chirality effects on core-periphery connection in a star-burst type tetranuclear Ru(III) complex: application of vibrational circular dichroism spectroscopy.
abstract: Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy was applied to study the stereochemical properties of a star-burst type tetranuclear Ru(III) complex, Δ-(or Λ-)[{Δ-(or Λ-)-Ru(III)(acac)(2)(taet)}(3)Ru(III)] (acac = acetylacetonato; taet = tetraacetylethanato). By comparing the VCD spectra of eight diastereomeric enantiomers, it was shown that the spectra reflected the homo- or hetero-chiral nature of the bridging part connecting the central core and the peripheral region.
