The catalytic asymmetric addition of alkyl groups to ketones has received considerable attention. Outlined herein is the synthesis of two new ligands based on the C2-symmetric 11,12-diamino-9,10-dihydro-9,10- ethanoanthracene. The scope of the new ligands has been evaluated in the catalytic asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to a variety of ketones. Enantioselectivities as high as 99% have been achieved. The structures of two of these ligands have been determined by X-ray crystallography and are compared with related structures. Additionally, the structure of a titanium complex bound to a bis(sulfonamide) diol ligand is reported.

Toluene solutions of composition Et3ZnLi react rapidly with aldehydes and ketones to form addition products. Et3ZnNa and Et3ZnK solutions react readily with the same substrates although metalation, as well as addition, is significant with substrates having α-hydrogens. The Et3ZnM solutions react with 2-cyclohexenone to give mainly the 1,4-addition product. Relative rates of addition of Et3ZnLi to substituted acetophenones give a Hammett ρ of 2.78. Addition of Et3ZnLi to acetophenone is slowed significantly by α and ortho methyl substituents; relative rates of addition to acetophenone, o-methylacetophenone, and tert-butyl phenyl ketone are 1.00, 0.012, and 0.003.

The substituent effect on the solvolysis of α,α-diisopropylbenzyl chlorides can be described in terms of ?+ value.No significant steric loss of resonance was observed by introducing two bulky isopropyl groups into benzylic reaction center.
