%0 Journal Article %T A note on the Noyori model for chiral amplification in the aminoalcohol-catalyzed reaction of aldehydes with dialkylzinc %A IVAN GUTMAN %J Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society %D 1999 %I Serbian Chemical Society %X The Noyori model of chiral amplification in the alkylation of aldehydes by means of dialkylzinc, catalyzed by chiral aminoalcohols, is further elaborated. A direct, but approximate, relation is obtained between the enantiomeric excess of the catalyst added and the enantiomeric excess of the product. %K chiral stereoselection %K chiral amplification %K chiral catalysis %K asymmetric synthesis %U http://www.shd.org.yu/HtDocs/SHD/Vol64/No11-Pdf/V64-no11-05.zip
