Unprecedented One-Pot Reaction towards Chiral, Non-Racemic Copper(I) Complexes of [2.2]Paracyclophane-Based P,N-Ligands.

Herein, we report a simple one-pot route to enantiopure copper(I) complexes featuring a unique [2.2]paracyclophane-based P,N-ligand system. Phosphine and pyridine moieties can be varied allowing the modular synthesis of these rigid and stable [2.2]paracyclophane-based P,N-ligands. These P,N-ligands are a new ligand class for different transition-metal complexes, which is shown exemplarily for palladium(II). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
