title: Chirality transfer based on reversible C-C bond formation/breaking in nickel(II) complexes.
abstract: The reaction of (1R)-(-)-myrtenal-derived benzothiazoline with nickel(II) acetate in ethanol exclusively gave a Schiff base-type nickel(II) complex having M helical configurational myrtenyl arms, which is reversibly converted to a non-innocent-type complex having additional S,S configurational asymmetric carbon centres.
