developed for preparing enantio-enriched secondary alcohols by starting from aryl bromides and aldehydes. Aryl bromides were first treated with BuLi, and the resulting aryllithium reagents were mixed with titanium tetraisopropoxide and magnesium bromide. The reaction of aldehydes with the resulting mixed titanium reagents, in the presence of 3-(3,5-diphenylphenyl)-H 8 -BINOL (2 mol-%) and titanium

A new chiral phosphine ligand (R)-1 possessing a fluoroalcohol moiety was prepared. The (R)-1-coordinated Rh(I) complex showed an excellent catalytic activity for asymmetric 1,2-addition of arylboronic acids to aldehydes to afford highly enantioenriched diarylmethanols. The fluoroalcohol moiety in ligand (R)-1 plays a pivotal role for the high enantioselectivity of the present Rh(I)-catalyzed transformation.

We used aryl bromides as inexpensive starting materials to enantioselectively arylate aldehydes in one pot. Aryl bromides readily transfer aryls to aryllithiums with n-butyllithium, successively to triarylaluminums with aluminum chloride, and then to aryltitaniums with titanium isopropoxide. Finally aryltitaniums arylate aldehydes catalyzed by (S)-H-8-BINOLTi(Oi-Pr)(2) in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. The additive TMEDA evidently suppresses the racemic background reaction promoted by LiCl generated from salt metathesis. This procedure represents a cost-effective and operationally convenient method for enantioenriched diarylmethanols.
