The synthesis of a series of new optically active pyridine ligands from proline derivatives has been developed for the enantioselective addition of dialkyl zinc compounds to aldehydes.The results obtained indicate that the corrdination of a metal atom to the nitrogen of the pyridine ring is essential in determining the stereochemistry of the process.
