By using a direct ortho-lithiation, the ligands (S)-3-methoxymethyl-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol [(S)-1], (S)-3,3′-bis(methoxymethyl)-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol [(S)-2], (S)-3-(quinolin-2-yl)-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol [(S)-3] and (S)-3,3′-bis(quinolin-2-yl)-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol [(S)-4] have been synthesized. (S)-1 and (S)-3 show moderate catalytic properties for the asymmetric diethylzinc addition to aromatic aldehydes.
