Vancomycin-Iridium (III) Interaction: An Unexplored Route for Enantioselective Imine Reduction

The chiral structure of antibiotic vancomycin (Van) was exploited as an innovative coordination sphere for the preparation of an IrCp* based hybrid catalysts. We found that Van is able to coordinate iridium (Ir(III)) and the complexation was demonstrated by several analytical techniques such as MALD...
