Patent ID: 10189871

Abstract:
In some embodiments, the present disclosure pertains to a compound, comprising a transition metal complex having the formula Φ-[M (x,y)-L1 (w,v)-L2 (t,u)-L3]p+An−mZ−p−m. In an embodiment of the present disclosure Φ may be Λ. In another embodiment Φ may be Δ. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, M is a transition metal. In a related embodiment, p is an integer corresponding to the oxidation state of M. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, each of x, y, w, v, t, and u independently comprise R. In other embodiments, each of x, y, w, v, t, and u independently comprise S. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, each of L1, L2, and L3 independently is a ligand comprising a substituted diamine. In some embodiments, An− comprises a lipophilic anion, where m is from 1 to 3, and where Z− comprises an optional second anion.
