Abstract

Two homochiral metal–organic, sextuply-stranded, lantern-like complexes, Ce-L-Pro1 and Ce-D-Pro1, were synthesized via self-assembly by incorporating a L or D-pyrrolidine moiety within the respective ligands. The Ce-Pro1 complexes are comprised of chiral pyrrolidine-containing ligands and have lantern-like cavities. They function as asymmetric catalysts that promote cyanosilylation reactions with good conversions and enantioselectivity.
