Abstract

The 1,3-aminophenol ligand (R)-1 was found to be a good catalyst for the zinc phenylacetylene addition to aldehydes. The high activity and enantioselectivity could be improved upon by basic additives. The enantioselectivity follows a linear free energy relationship with higher enantioselectivity obtained for the more reactive aryl aldehydes.
