Ej. Corey et Jj. Rohde, THE APPLICATION OF THE FORMYL C-H--O HYDROGEN-BOND POSTULATE TO THE UNDERSTANDING OF ENANTIOSELECTIVE REACTIONS INVOLVING CHIRAL BORON LEWIS-ACIDS AND ALDEHYDES, Tetrahedron letters, 38(1), 1997, pp. 37-40
A number of noteworthy enantioselective reactions involving a variety
of chiral boron Lewis acids and aldehydes can be rationalized in terms
of the occurrence of formyl CH-O hydrogen bonds in the transition sta
tes and the additional three-dimensional organization which they provi
