The synthesis of atropo-enantiomerically pure aminomethyl and hydroxymethyl substituted biaryls derivatives M-2 and M-3 (and, optionally, their enantiomers), by dynamic kinetic resolution of a racemic lactone precursor, is described. Their application as chiral catalysts in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes leads to excellent enantiomeric ratios of up to 99:1 and high chemical yields.
