41. 11,20 NMR experiments have been used to determine which complex, syn,syn or syn,anti, is kinetically formed. However, all attempts to utilize this approach with our ligand have proven to be unsuccessful.
42. In work published after submission of this manuscript, the possibility that the product derives from regioselective attack on a syn,anti complex has been discussed, see: Ramdeehul, S.; Dierkes, P.; Aquado, R.; Kamer, P. C.; van Leewen, P. W. N. M.; Osborn, J. A. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 1998, 37, 3118. This paper concludes, as we have for our ligands, that the steric interactions associated with the synchronous events of nucleophilic attack and rotation due to the change of hapticity are responsible for the chiral recognition.
