BINOL and substituted BINOLs, which have been tethered between the 7 and 7'
sites (i.e.'cyclo-BINOLs'), can be attached via this linkage to polystyren
e resins using a simple acetalization. Efficacy associated with these new l
igands is demonstrated in heterogeneous asymmetric catalysis (e.g. aryl alk
yl sulfide oxidations, and 1,2-additions of Et2Zn to aryl aldehydes). (C) 2
