Abstract
The synthesis of new, trifluoromethyl group containing atropisomeric amino alcohols and their application in enantioselective diethylzinc additions to aldehydes is described. A significant improvement of the enantioinductive effects of the new ligands by increasing the Bronsted acidity and bulkiness of the triarylcarbinol moiety is also reported. Tuning was achieved by the introduction of phenyl substituents containing two trifluoromethyl groups onto the α-carbon of the tertiary alcohol part of the ligand. The application of the new catalysts provided 1-(substituted phenyl)propanols with excellent enantiomeric purities.

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.
