Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of sterically demanding alcohols using di(2°-alkyl)zinc prepared by the refined Charette's method

Abstract

A highly practical, catalytic enantioselective 2°-alkyl addition to aldehydes and ketones was developed. Chiral phosphoramide ligand (1) with salt-free and solvent-free di(2°-alkyl)zinc reagents prepared from (2°-alkyl)MgCl was essential.
