Y. Hashimoto et al., STEREOSELECTIVE ADDITION-REACTION OF ORGANOLITHIUM REAGENTS TO CHIRALIMINES DERIVED FROM ERYTHRO-2-AMINO-1,2-DIPHENYLETHANOL, Chemistry Letters, (3), 1995, pp. 235-236
The chiral imines prepared from an artificial chiral auxiliary, erythr
o-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol, and various aldehydes, reacted with org
anolithium reagents to give the corresponding chiral amines with excel
lent diastereofacial selectivity.
