Abstract
A new class of enantiopure b-aminoalcohols having 1,1’-binaphthyl skeleton, and chiral only by atropisomerism, has been prepared and tested as catalytic precursors in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes. The aldehydes were quickly and cleanly (99% yield) transformed in the corresponding alcohols with ee up to 87%.
