A new class of organocatalysts based on the structure of 2,3-dihydrobenzo[1,4]oxazine was prepared and applied in the enantioselective transfer-hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with Hantzsch ester as hydride donor. These catalysts proved to be particularly effective for the conjugate reduction of β,β-diaryl-substituted acrylaldehydes leading to saturated aldehydes bearing a stereogenic center with two different aryl groups with enantioselectivities of up to 91% ee.
Asymmetric Synthesis of 3,3-Diarylpropanals with Chiral Diene-Rhodium Catalysts

A general route to enantioenriched 3,3-diarylpropanals is presented. These useful building blocks are prepared via an asymmetric rhodium-catalyzed conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to cinnamaldehyde derivatives in the presence of chiral dienes. The
