✦ Synopsis


Various dithioureas bearing an aromatic ring on their terminal nitrogen atoms have been synthesized. These have been tested in the asymmetric reduction of ketones as catalyzed by a rhodium complex. The influence of electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents on the aromatic rings on the reactivity and the enantiomeric excess (ee) has

## Abstract __C__~2~‐Symmetrical boron complexes, prepared by the reactions of 2,2′‐methylenebis(oxazolines) (BOXs) with catecholborane (CATBH), can be used as catalysts (5–10 mol‐%) in the enantioselective reduction of prochiral ketones (__ee__ 72–86 %), giving the desired alcohols in satisfactory
