Tethered ruthenium(II) η6-arene complexes: assessing the potential of benzylic substituents to control metal-centred chirality, and applications in asymmetric transfer hydrogenations of ketones. Journal of organometallic chemistry, 960, Article 122232. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jorganchem.2021.122232

The synthesis and characterisation of a small series of tethered ruthenium(II) η6-arene complexes is described, where a single benzylic substituent is examined as a route to enforcing chirality at the metal centre upon ligation of a tethered bidentat...

This project develops new organometallic frameworks, to target the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation and hydrosilylation of ketones, aiming for enhanced activity and substrate scope relative to current state-of-the-art. The anticancer activity of som... Read More about New routes to chiral-at-metal organometallic complexes and their application in asymmetric synthesis.
