Resumen de Visualizing Metal Tris Chelates: Visualizations to Examine the Structure and Symmetry of Metal Tris Chelates: Symmetry Operations, Chirality, and Mechanisms (Bailar Twist and Rây-Dutt) that Racemize the ? and ? Isomers.

Marion E. Cass, Henry S. Rzepa

• Highlights three animated visualizations�the C2 and C3 symmetry operations in chiral tris chelates, the assignment of absolute configurations in these molecules, and the non-dissociative mechanisms (the Bailar Twist and Rây-Dutt) that interchange ? and ? enantiomers.
