13. Two additions of aryl groups to aldehydes beginning from aryl bromides are reported; each gave less than 10% enantioselectivity; see: B. Weber, D. Seebach, Tetrahedron 1994, 50, 7473.
14. 3] and addition to benzaldehydes gave high enantioselectivities only if the reactions were subject to centrifugation to remove LiCl and the addition of 30 mol % of [12]crown-4 to inhibit the remaining LiCl; see reference [12].

17. 2 followed by filtration through Celite and addition of dimethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (to inhibit traces of remaining LiBr) and addition to 4-chlorobenzaldehyde afforded the diaryl methanol in up to 93 % enantioselectivity in 8-31 % yield; see: J.
