Non-classical bonding in chiral metal complexes

Abstract

Intramolecular non-covalent interactions between aromatic ligands in chiral Ru(II) and Co(III) complexes have been investigated in this study. Several investigations were carried out and findings given. The results of the study, which demonstrate the significance of non-covalent interactions involving aromatic residues to the determination of the molecular conformation, serve to highlight the suitability of simple chiral metal complexes to act as models for interactions
