Abstract

The enantiomeric purities of (R)-(–)-[(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)(PPh3)COMe](1)[α]54622–288°(c 0.04, C6H6) and S-(+)-(1)[α]54622+288°(c 0.04, C6H6) are established by two independent methods and the absolute configurations assigned by an X-ray structure analysis of (R)-{(η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)(PPh3)COCH2CH2O [(R)-menthyl]}.
