Deskripsi

The development of straightforward methods for the synthesis of planar chiral ferrocenes remains highly challenging. Here, the authors report a rhodium(I)/phosphonate-catalyzed thioketone-directed enantioselective C-H bond arylation reaction for the synthesis of chiral planar ferrocenes.
