Herein we present an efficient chiral phosphoric-acid-catalyzed atropoenantioselective asymmetric reductive amination of biaryl dialdehydes. The process involves desymmetrization and the following kinetic resolution, with a wide range of axially chiral aryl aldehydes obtained with high optical purities.
Wang et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
