Enantiomerically enriched diaryl, aryl heteroaryl, and dihetero­aryl alcohols are an important family of compounds known for their biological properties. Moreover, these molecules are highly privileged scaffolds used as building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceutically relevant products. This short review provides background on the enantioselective arylation and heteroarylation of carbonyl compounds, as well as, the most significant improvements in this field with special emphasis on the application of organometallic reagents.1 Introduction2 Background on the Enantioselective Synthesis of Diaryl, Aryl Heteroaryl, and Diheteroaryl Alcohols3 Organozinc Reagents4 Organolithium Reagents5 Grignard Reagents6 Organoaluminum Reagents7 Organotitanium Reagents8 Organobismuth Reagents9 Miscellaneous10 Conclusion

Alkyllithium reagents (RLi: R = methyl, n-butyl, t-butyl) add to norbornen-7-one either without stereochemical preference (R = n-butyl) or with syn attack favored. This addition selectivity is qualitatively the same as that shown by corresponding alkylmagnesium reagents but competition from reduction is much less important in the case of alkyllithium reagents.Phenyllithium and vinyllithium add preferentially from the anti face, although the corresponding Grignard reagents add selectively from the syn face. Possible causes of the stereoselectivities are considered. Solvent effects on the stereochemistry of addition are small.

Chiral oxime ethers are readily prepared from chiral alkoxyamines derived from ephedrine and norephedrine. These chiral oxime ethers of isobutyraldehyde and benzaldehyde undergo 1,2-nucleophilic addition reactions with alkyllithium reagents (n-BuLi, PhLi and n-BuLi, tert-butyllithium, respectively) to afford the chiral alkoxyamines with a diastereomeric excess of 64–88%. Reduction of the alkoxyamines with LiAlH4 gave the corresponding chiral amines. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction appears to directly mirror the E:Z ratio of the starting oxime ethers.
