A highly enantioselective method for the synthesis of β-hydroxy esters via reductive aldol reaction of acrylates with aryl and heteroaromatic ketones is described. In situ generated catalyst composed of zinc acetate and chiral diamine afforded enantioenri

Zinc acetate complexes with a chiral diphenylethylenediamine (DPEDA)-derived ligand have been proved to be efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrosilylation of aryl ketones. Replacing pyrophoric dialkylzinc with the readily available zinc salt simplifies the procedures and provides excellent conversions (up to >99%) and enantioselectivities (ees up to 97%).
