Benzoylacetate esters and aryl-substituted derivatives are efficiently reduced in 2-propanol using the readily available catalytic combination (1S,2R)-ephedrine/[RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)]2 to give the corresponding alcohols in high yields and enantioselectivities (up to 94% ee).

Enantioselective Synthesis of β-Hydroxy Esters by Indium-induced Reformatsky Reaction
Johar, Perminder S.,Araki, Shuki,Butsugan, Yasuo
, p. 711 - 714 (2007/10/02)
Indium-induced Reformatsky reaction, with stoicheiometric amounts of chiral amino alcohols such as cinchonine and cinchonidine, gave optically active β-hydroxy esters in 40-70 percent e.e.
