Abstract
Novel chiral N,O-ferrocenyl ligands, in which N and O groups were attached to two different Cp rings of ferrocene, were synthesized from easily availa ble ferrocene, and applied to the asymmetric diethylzinc addition to aldehy des. High chemical yields and good enantioselectivities (up to 90.9% ee) we re obtained by using ferrocene ligand 6. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Sci ence Ltd. All rights reserved.
