摘要
The asymmetric synthesis of [7]helicene was accomplished in good ee (80 %) by kinetic resolution by means of asymmetric olefin metathesis. Three key factors contributed to the success of the kinetic resolution: the use of new Ru-based olefin metathesis catalysts bearing Cl-symmetric N-heterocyclic carbene ligands, simple olefins as additives to control the nature of the propagating alkylidene and hexafluorobenzene as a solvent.
