The reaction illustrated below, when carried out in a non-coordinating solvent, proceeds with high stereospecificity giving mainly a single enantiomer of product (95% enantiomeric excess). Discuss how the reaction is likely to proceed and hence predict both the stereochemistry of the product and the position of the 13C label. 13 CO Ph₂p...Fe OO
