โฆ Synopsis
The use of cinchona alkaloids to promote the addition of diethylzinc to P,P-diphenyl-N-(phenylmethylene)phosphinic amide has been examined. Using cinchonine and cinchonidine as ligands, the S and R enantiomers of N-(1-phenylpropyl)-P,Pdiphenylphosphinic amide were prepared in good yield with up to 93% ee. The reaction was shown to proceed with catalytic amounts of ligand.

By fine-tuning the substituents on the nitrogen of (1S,2R) and (1R,2S)-1,2-diphenyl-2-aminoethanols, a chiral ligand 2b was obtained, which showed excellent enantioselectivity, with up to 94% e.e, for the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to N-diphenylphosphinoylimines 1. In one example, the optica
