This operationally protocol enables synthesis planar metallocenes high yields with excellent enantioselectivity through desymmetrization kinetic resolution. Air-stable nickelacycle intermediates are first synthesized via nickelation shown to be possible reaction.

Enantiomers, where chirality arises from restricted rotation around a single bond, are atropisomers. Due to the unique nature of origins their chirality, synthetic strategies access these compounds in an enantioselective manner differ those used prepare enantioenriched containing point arising unsymmetrically substituted carbon center.
