摘要

Prochiral ketones which contain nitrogen atoms have been reduced enantioselectively with chiral oxazaborolidines in the presence of excess borane. However, the pyridine system has been shown to be a poor substrate for this asymmetric reduction. For example, catalytic reduction of 2-acetylpyridine with a chiral oxazaborolidine provided the product alcohol in only 28% ee. We wish to report the enantioselective reduction of 2-(bromoacetyl)-pyridine ...
