The reduction with various hydrides and the addition of some Grignard reagents and aklyl lithiums to various protected 1-hydroxy-2-phenylalkan-3-ones furnished respectively the corresponding secondary and tertiary alcohols with a diastereoselectivity from good to excellent.Both processes were stereoconservative, no racemization being observed.
