U. Veith et al., AUXILIARY-CONTROLLED DIASTEREOSELECTION BY N-(1-PHENYLETHYL) IN GRIGNARD ADDITIONS TO 2-O-BENZYLGLYCERALDEHYDE IMINES, Chemical communications, (3), 1996, pp. 329-330
Grignard reagents add to 2-O-benzylglyceraldehyde N-(1-phenylethyl)imi
nes in high yield at normal or high pressure (12 kbar); threo vs. eryt
hro selectivity is governed by the (R)- or (S)-1-phenylethyl substitue
