Unusual solvent-regulated inversion of a metal stereocenter in an enantiopure Eu2L4 helicate: a new strategy for CPL inversion

Inorg. Chem. Front., 2024, 11,8093-8100
DOI: 10.1039/D4QI02276A, Research Article
Qing Ma, Sen Yin, Ziye Song, Ting Gao, Pengfei Yan, Yanyan Zhou, Hongfeng Li
The dinuclear helicate Eu2(LR)4 exhibits a solvent-regulated metal stereocenter Δ/Λ configurational inversion, independent of P/M helical conformational conversion. This reversal process is accompanied by an inversion of the CPL.
