Significance
In the present work, the authors utilize Knochel’s method for diarylzinc preparation (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2004, 43, 1017) and (S)-H8BINOL-derived L1 to generate a highly reactive and enantioselective catalytic system for the addition of various functionalized arylzincs to aldehydes. Interestingly, when L1 was not added the reaction rate was significantly decreased.
