59. In order to test the effect of the temperature on the reaction rate and enantioselectivity, acetophenone 9a was treated with borane dimethylsulfide (1 equiv.) and ligand 2e (5 mol-%) in THF at various temperatures. For example, phenylethanol 10a was obtained in 90% yield albeit with very low enantioselectivity (5% ee) after 3 h at room temp. When the reduction was performed at subambient temperatures, the rate decreased and the product was obtained in racemic form.
