## Abstract Asymmetric catalytic activity of the chiral spiroborate esters **1**–**9** with a O~3~BN framework (see __Fig. 1__) toward borane reduction of prochiral ketones was examined. In the presence of 0.1 equiv. of a chiral spiroborate ester, prochiral ketones were reduced by 0.6 equiv. of bor

## Abstract The direction of reduction of 20‐carbonyl group of 3α‐hydroxy‐5β‐pregnan‐20‐one (1) with a complex of borane‐methyl sulfide and chiral β‐amino alcohols, depends on the chirality of the amino alcohol. Where there is a 2‐phenyl or 2‐benzyl substituent, then the __S__ enantiomer gives excl

The synthesis of enantiomerically enriched a-amino acids is described, by means of the diastereoselective conjugate addition of Grignard reagent to (S)-2-acetamidoacrylic ethoxycarbonylphenyl-methyl ester 1 and its N-Boo derivative 5 in the presence of Lewis acids. The addition of magnesium organocu
