Fe-cyclopentadienone complexes have been widely utilized in various hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalytic processes, yet their applications have largely been restricted to non-asymmetric versions. Herein, the authors report the synthesis of a chiral Fe- cyclopentadienone complex and its application in the catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of acylsilanes.
