abstract
The title claim is established with five -aromatic aldehyde complexes [(5-C5H5)Re(NO)(PPh3) (2-O=CHAr)]+ X-; electronegative aryl substituents give shorter rhenium-carbon bond lengths and higher binding selectivities, providing the first easily conceptualized mechanism for an electronic effect upon chiral recognition.
