Abstract :
High enantioselectivities are obtained using a tartaric acid-derived boronate ester in combination with lithium borohydride for asymmetric reduction of aryl ketones. The chiral Lewis acid, TarB-X, is easily prepared in 1 h, and the resulting alcohols are obtained in enantiomeric excesses of 88–99%.
