Control of self-sorting regimes is achieved through adjustment of steric interactions in self-assembled coordination cages. The self-assembly regime of dynamic mixtures of heteroleptic cages is followed by HPLC to show...
Regioselective rhodium-induced B(4)–H hydroxylation and halogenation reactions of o-carboranes are reported. The key intermediate has been isolated. Iridium-induced B(3)/B(4)–H activation of o-carboranes has been achieved through steric control.
Subtle changes to the bulk of 1 : 1 adducts of DMAP with magnesium(i) complexes leads to steric control over the products arising from their reductive oligomerisations of carbon monoxide.
The VCD method was applied for searching the origin of chirality selection in the asymmetric catalysis by Cu(ii) complexes. When 1-phenyl-1,3-butanedionato was coordinated, it was transformed to a twisted chiral form under the steric control.
