Attempts at performing dynamic kinetic resolution on a series of cyclic ketimines by making use of an asymmetric organocatalysed hydrosilylation gave modest conversion and moderate to good enantioselectivities. In the case of α-tetralone derivatives, the use of an N-benzyl protecting group was found to be crucial in obtaining enhanced levels of selectivity.
