A new family of chiral amine-borane complexes the N-spiroazaborolidines 4 is synthesized. These compounds are stable, convenient to use and have proved to be excellent reducingagents of prochiralketones (yieldreduction≥95%). However, a poor enantioselectivity was obtained (ee<-38%). The configuration of these molecules (cis position between Baza and the substituent on the Boxaza), unfavourable for
