Tricarbonyl[⁶-(R)-N,N-dimethyl-1-phenylethylamine]chromium(0)

W. Braun, B. Calmuschi and A. Salzer

Abstract: The title complex, [Cr(C₁₀H₁₅N)(CO)₃], has a typical three-legged piano-stool structure, as is expected for an ⁶-arene-tricarbonylchromium compound. The conformation is staggered with respect to the side chain and one of the carbonyl ligands. The side chain bearing the stereogenic centre adopts a conformation with the H atom pointing downwards, leaving the dimethylamine group above the ring plane.
