Several highly modular chiral amino diol tridentate ligands were found to be effective for the asymmetric alkylation reaction of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of methyllithium reagent, providing up to 96% ee values and up to 94% yields under relatively mild conditions. The investigation of the catalytic activity of these ligands shows a correlation of enantioselectivities of ligands with steric properties of substituent N-alkyl and nucleophilic Li-alkyl. With the addition of Ti(O-i-Pr)4 to the ligand 3c, the 1H NMR spectrum reveals a hexa-coordinate Ti transition state complex with only one Ti metal center generated in solution.

A series of C2-symmetric chiral amino diol tridentate ligands 3a-g were prepared from achiral bulky organolithiums, achiral bulky primary amines, and optically active epichlorohydrin (ECH). The prepared C 2-symmetric chiral amino diol tridentate ligands were capable of inducing enantioselectivity in the model reaction of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes with diethylzinc with an ee of up to 96%. The enantioselectivity can be modulated by adjusting the steric hindrance of the achiral reagents employed in the synthesis of the chiral ligand. The configuration of the addition product depended on the configuration of the amino diol ligands, which can be simply controlled as desired by using the ECH with the desired configuration during the preparation of the ligand.
