RESET Principles in Design of Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Ligands with Adjustable Steric Elements
Project ID: NPOO.C3.2.R2-I1.06.0022
Project Description
Chiral cyclopentadienyl (Cp) catalysts are exceptional tools for inducing stereodivergent interactions between achiral molecules. These essential interactions result from the geometrical arrangement of a chiral pocket modeled by a chiral Cp-ligand that surrounds the central metal atom. Any alteration in ligand architecture is reflected in the overall stereoelectronic nature of the chiral Cp-catalyst. Consequently, the efficiency of a chiral catalyst is indivisible from the means of synthesis of a chiral ligand and the level of structural modularity that specific synthetic design allows.
This project is financed by the European Union - NextGenerationEU through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan 2021-2026.
