Chiral C2-symmetric 2,3-disubstituted aziridines and 2,6-disubstituted piperidines having a β-amino alcohol moiety have been successfully synthesized and their catalytic chiral induction properties have been examined in the asymmetric addition reactions of diethylzinc with arylaldehydes in hexane. When N-(2,2-diphenyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-(S,S)-2,3-bis(methoxymethyl)aziridine 11 was used as a catalytic chiral ligand, sec-alcohols having (S)-configuration formed in high yields of 86-92% but low enantiomeric excesses (ee's) of 11-13%. However, when N-(2,2-diphenyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-(R,R)-2,6-disubstituted piperidine derivatives 16 and 20 were used as the chiral ligands under the same reaction conditions, the ee's of the corresponding sec-alcohols were 20-30 and 5-6%, respectively, along with the inversion of absolute configuration. A plausible mechanism for this inversion is proposed.

(S)-1-Phenylethylamine has been used as a chiral auxiliary as well as a nitrogen atom donor in the synthesis of an enantiomeric pair of azetidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acids, the absolute configuration of one of which has been assigned on the basis of the X-ra
