Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Whenα-dimethylaminoacetophenone andβ-dimethylaminopropiophenone are reduced by optically active organomagnesium compounds the asymmetric reduction proceeds with an optical yield of 65–70%.

  2. 2.

    The absolute configuration for the obtained amino alcohols was proposed on the basis of the optical rotation dispersion data.
