Pyrrolidine-based amino alcohols: novel ligands for the enantioselective alkylation of benzaldehyde

A series of easily obtained pyrrolidine-based [beta]-amino alcohols derived from tartaric acid and primary amines was synthesized and used as chiral ligands in the enantioselective alkylation of benzaldehyde. Using diethylzinc, 1-phenyl-1-propanol was obtained with enantiomeric excesses of up to 80%...
