An asymmetrically modified borohydride type compound is obtained by reacting an optically active amino alcohol of the formula:
,or its salt with an acid with a borohydride compound. The modified borohydride compound may be used for producing an optically active alcohol derivative which is useful as a fungicide, herbicide or plant growth regulator, which alcohol derivative has the formula:
and is obtained by carrying out the asymmetric reduction of the corresponding ketone compound with the asymmetrically modified boron hydride type compound.
