[Cp(CO)2Mo{NR*[Rh(norbornadiene)]‐CH(pyridyl)}], a Rhodium Complex with an Asymmetric Molybdenum Atom in the Chelate Skeleton

Four centers of chirality—2 × C, 1 × N, 1 × Mo—are present in the title compound 1, R* = (R)-1-CHMePh. Complex 1 is characterized, among other things, by a slightly bent CO group, which is in close contact to Rh. A complicated series of ring openings and epimerizations is suggested as a plausible route to 1.
