Abstract
Abstract The in situ formed chiral oxazaborolidine catalysts from optically active β-amino alcohols 1-3 from L-methionine ethyl carboxylate 4 have been used successfully in the enantioselective catalytic homogenous borane reductions of various aromatic ketones. The corresponding optically active alcohols are obtained in high optical purity (up to 100% ee ).
