Abstract
Optically active amino thioacetate derivatives of (+)-norephedrine wer e found to act as effective catalysts for enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes, This reaction provided optically active sec ondary alcohols with e.e. of up to >99%. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier S cience Ltd
