Abstract
Asymmetric reduction of ketones with hydride complexes, which were prepared by in situ modification of NaAlH4, with various chiral amino alcohols or d iamines, was studied. The highest enantioselectivity (up to 93% ee) was ach ieved using 2-(hydroxydiphenyl-methyl)pyrrolidine as a chiral inducing agen t.
