TLDR
The reaction of diethylzinc with benzaldehyde catalyzed by a small amount of chiral 2-amino-1-alcohols in toluene at room temperature gave optically active 1-phenylpropan-1ol almost quantitatively in ∼, 50% ee as discussed by the authors.

Catalytic Asymmetric Organozinc Additions to Carbonyl Compounds

TL;DR: These studies on macromolecular chiral catalysts demonstrate that these materials are potentially very useful for practical applications and can also be preserved in the rigid and sterically regular polymer provided the catalytically active species of the monomer catalyst is not its aggregate.
