Catching the bowl! Enantiopure RhI dimethylnorbornadiene fragments selectively catch interconverting enantiomers of C5-sym-pentasubstituted corannulene derivatives in one bowl form and allow the observation and isolation of enantiopure metal-buckybowl complexes. A quantum mechanical model (see picture) predicts the mechanism of molecular dynamics and degree of stereoselective recognition.
