, p. 10539 - 10548 (1994)
The results from the baker's yeast-mediated reduction of the acetates 3a- d and the methyl ethers 5a-d were compared with the same biotransformation which converts the α-hydroxy ketones 1a-d into the (R)-diols 2a-d (90- 98%ee); the acetates 3a-d afford the (S)-monoacetates 4a-d (72-94% ee) and the methyl ethers 5a-d are reduced to the (R)-monoethers 6a-d (64-76% ee).

Zinc triflate-bis-oxazoline complexes as chiral catalysts: Enantioselective reduction of α-alkoxy-ketones with catecholborane
Bandini, Marco,Cozzi, Pier Giorgio,De Angelis, Meri,Umani-Ronchi, Achille
, p. 1601 - 1605 (2007/10/03)
A new methodology for the catalytic enantioselective reduction of α- alkoxy-ketones is described. The procedure employs Zn(OTf)2-bis-oxazoline complexes (8-10 mol%) as catalysts and catecholborane as the reducing agent. The reaction, carried ou
