Synthesis of new pryridyl alcohols and their use as catalysts in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes

Optically active new pyridyl alcohols 1–4, which can be easily synthesized by the reaction of (+)‐camphor or (−)‐menthone with lithiated pyridine derivatives, were applied as chiral ligands in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Good yields with up to 94.0%enantiomeric excesses were...

Zusammenfassung:Optically active new pyridyl alcohols 1–4, which can be easily synthesized by the reaction of (+)‐camphor or (−)‐menthone with lithiated pyridine derivatives, were applied as chiral ligands in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Good yields with up to 94.0%enantiomeric excesses were observed in these reactions. Chirality 14:28–31, 2002. ©2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
