Synthesis of New Enantiopure γ-Amino Alcohols: Their Use as Catalysts in the Alkylation of Benzaldehyde by Diethylzinc.
-Seven γ-amino alcohols are prepared by a convenient method based on 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the nitrone (I) to olefins. Among them the alcohols (VI) and (VIIa) are best catalysts in zinc mediated alkylation of benzaldehyde. However, only modest enantioselectivity is observed.

## Abstract Optically active new pyridyl alcohols **1–4**, which can be easily synthesized by the reaction of (+)‐camphor or (−)‐menthone with lithiated pyridine derivatives, were applied as chiral ligands in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Good yields with up to 94.0%enantiome
