Abstract

... 1980. Printed in Great Britain LIMITS ON THE TRANSITION STATE GEOMETRY FOR METAL INSERTION INTO A CARBON-HYDROGEN BOND J. William Suggs and GDN Pearson Bell Laboratories 600 Mountain Avenue, Murray Hill, NJ 07974 SUMMARY; Using chelating ligands to fix the position of the metal and CH bond, evidence is found which favors a triangular geometry for metal insertion. ...
