N2 - A reversal in enantioselectivity was observed by the combination of a chiral diol and achiral alcohols as a chiral initiator in the asymmetric alkylation of a pyrimidine-5-carbaldehyde using diisopropylzinc. (2S,3S)-Butane-2,3-diol alone induced (R)-pyrimidyl alkanol, while a mixture of the chiral diol and phenol derivatives induced (S)-pyrimidyl alkanol. The effect of achiral alcohols is also discussed.
