Asymmetric reduction of o-hydroxyacetophenones with B-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane provides product alcohols with the apposite configuration compared to those produced in the reduction of the corresponding o-methoxyacetophenones. The implications of this result for organic synthesis are discussed.
