The importance of nitrogen substituents in chiral amino thiol ligands for the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes
Anderson, James C.,Harding, Michael
, p. 393 - 394 (1998)
A new series of N,S-chelate ligands derived from (S)-valine, which possess the capability of a stereogenic nitrogen donor atom, are catalysts for the addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes and gave the product secondary alcohols in up to 82% ee.
Concepts for ligand design in asymmetric catalysis: A study of chiral amino thiol ligands

A series of new chiral sulfur-nitrogen chelate ligands, derived from amino acids, has been synthesised rationally. Fruitless experiments into catalytic asymmetric conjugate additions and desymmetrisation of meso- epoxides led us to analyse our ligands in
