Abstract

This study describes a heteroligated, hemilabile PtII-P,S tweezer coordination complex that combines a chiral Jacobsen-Katsuki Mn III-salen epoxidation catalyst with an amidopyridine receptor, which leads to an inversion of the major epoxide product compared to catalysts without a recognition group.
