Cini, M., Bradshaw, T. D., Woodward, S., & Lewis, W. (2015). Asymmetric pentafulvene carbometalation-access to enantiopure titanocene dichlorides of biological relevance. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 54(47), https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201508034

Unprecedented asymmetric copper-catalyzed addition of ZnEt2 (ZnBu2) to the exocyclic C[DOUBLE BOND]C bond of pentafulvenes C5H4([DOUBLE BOND]CHAr) (Ar=2-MeOPh and related species) results in enantiomerically enriched (up to 93:7 e.r.) cyclopentadieny...
