1,1′-Bi-isoquinoline: a chiral bidentate N-donor ligand with C2-symmetry; formation of optically active complexes with high chiral recognition

Abstract

1,1′-Bi-isoquinoline was co-ordinated with two enantiomers of a chiral palladium complex forming optically active binuclear Pd complexes, and high chiral recognition between the complexing partners was observed during the complexation.
