Tetrahedron Lett. 31:1990;6005-6008 Following the procedure of Masamune et al. the generation of the active species was attempted by in situ copper(II) complex formation of 5a and 6 followed by addition of phenylhydrazine to reduce them to the active copper(I) form. However, no reduction to this species was observed.
19. Surprisingly, with ligands 5a and 6, bearing aromatic groups, the major isomer of alcohol produced is R, while with 5b, 5c and 5d, bearing heteroaromatic units, the enantiomer in slight excess has S configuration. The determined ee values, although very small, are significant. However, in spite of the overall low selectivity this observation must be interpreted with great care.
