One of the most intriguing challenges of stereochemistry is deracemization and the preparation of homochiral compounds.[1] Despite the great progress in asymmetric organic synthesis, there are only several instances of genuine “absolute” asymmetric preparation of inorganic compounds,[2] these include spontaneous resolution processes too.[3] Thus, a partial photoresolution either in circularly polarized light [4a, b] or a parallel magnetic field [4c] has been observed for the [Cr (ox) 3] 3À ion and its derivatives. Gillard and his associates have described the synthesis of the chiral polysulphide (NH4) 2 [Pt (S5)(S6) 2]· 2 H2O.[5] The complex crystallizes spontaneously with one enantiomer in excess. It was obtained from a well-stirred water reaction mixture of K2PtCl6 and an excess of (NH4) 2Sn, maintained at pH 9.4. Kondepudi and coworkers have shown that, whereas the crystallization of NaClO3 from unstirred solutions yields a racemic conglomerate of (þ)-and (À)-NaClO3 (cubic space group P213), vigorous stirring triggers spontaneous symmetry breaking and produces almost exclusively crystals of single handedness.[6] Asakura et al. have demonstrated the generation of optically active cis-[CoBr (NH3)(en) 2] Br2(en= 1, 2-ethanediamine) from optically inactive substrates in a stirred suspension by a chiral autocatalysis mechanism.[7] More recently, it has been reported that the crystallization of NaClO3 from a solution irradiated by antiparallel-spin electrons results in dextrorotatory crystals in excess, whereas irradiation by parallelspin positrons yields crystals with the opposite handedness.[8] Keszthelyi and Szabó-Nagy have described a small enantiomeric excess found in polycrystalline material upon crystallization from racemic solutions of (þ)-and (À)-tartrate (2À) with either (þ)-and (À)-[Co (en) 3] 3+ or [Ir (en) 3] 3+ ions.[9] The authors of the latter two works have claimed that the observed partial deracemization is because of electroweak forces. Clearly, these preparations could only be successful under nonequilibrium conditions involving physical fields and/or autocatalytic chirality-amplification mechanisms. Nevertheless, in the preparation of transition-metal complexes, the generation of chiral asymmetry with substantial optical yields still remains rather rare.In the course of our research on the coordination capability of the spirophosphorane HP (OCMe2CMe2O) 2,[10] we synthesized a chiral complex cis-[ReOCl2 {OCMe2CMe2OP-(OCMe2CMe2O)} py](cis-1, py= pyridine) as a racemate.[10a] In addition to monodentate ligands, the six-coordinate complex also contains a chelating phosphite diolato (1À) ligand, a deprotonated tautomeric form of the spirophosphorane (OCMe2CMe2O) POCMe2CMe2OH. The complex appeared to be rigid on the NMR time scale.
