Abstract
Starting from pulegone, camphor, and tartrate, three chiral cyclopentadienes were prepared efficiently. Metalation with Co/sub 2/(CO)/sub 8/ and TiCl/sub 3/ resulted in new chiral and enantiomerically pure substituted cyclopentadienyldicarbonylcobalt and -titanocene complexes. The latter were used in the quantitative catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-phenyl-1-butene in up to 34% optical yield. The former allowed the first asymmetric (2 + 2 + 2) cycloadditions promoted by chiral cyclopentadienylcobalt complexes to be observed.
