A series of chiral 1,3-aminoalcohols derived from cis-(1R,2S)-2-benzamidocyclohexanecarboxylic acid were synthesized and applied to the enantioselective arylation of aromatic aldehydes. The reactions exhibited good yields (up to 90%) and moderate to high enantioselectivities (up to 99%). Not only the enantioselectivity but also the stereochemistry of the product were controlled by the substituent effect of the chiral ligands.
