Abstract
In order to generate a chiral metallocene ligand similar to Kaminsky-Sinn catalysts, a multistep synthesis for the production of 6,7-dimethylbicyclo[3.2.0]hepta-1,3-dienyl anion was proposed. Experiments directed at the initial phase of the proposal are included, ending with the characterization of new alcohols in compounds 9 through 12. Two steps from the synthesis were successfully combined, leading to improved recovery of the alcohols.
