Natural (+)-camphene was used as the starting material for the preparation of an isobornyloxy-substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand in a simple two-step procedure. (-)-Menthol and (+)-fenchol were converted to analogous chiral cyclopentadienyl ligands in a four-step procedure. The new ligands contain an ether linkage suitable for bidentate chelation to a transition metal.
