Abstract

Addition of allyldiisopinocampheylborane to racemic (dienal)iron complexes, followed by oxidation, affords diastereomeric (1,4,6-trien-3-ol)iron complexes with moderate to low enantioselectivity. The high enantioselectivity typically observed for this allylborane reagent is attenuated by steric interaction between the Fe(CO)₃ group and the chiral isopinocampheyl groups. Further diminution of the enantioselectivity is observed for dienal complexes in which one rotomer predominates.
