Asymmetric Ruthenium Catalysis Enables Fluorophores with Point Chirality Displaying CPL Properties
Abstract
A novel enantiopure π-allylruthenium(IV) precatalyst allowed the enantioselective and stereospecific allylations of indoles and gave access to indolin-3-ones, containing vicinal stereogenic centers. Facile separation of diastereoisomers exhibiting opposite circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) activities in diverse solvents, including water, demonstrated the potential of these sustainable transformations and of the newly prepared molecules.
Keywords: CPL; chirality; enantioselectivity; fluorescence; stereoselectivity.
