Asymmetric catalytic activity of chiral spiroborate esters, (R)- or (S)-1,1-bi-2-naphthoxyboric acid (S)-proline anhydride [(R,S)-1 or (S,S)-1], toward borane reduction of prochiral imines has been observed. In the presence of (R,S)-1 or (S,S)-1, prochiral imines generated from con-densation of aniline and a prochiral dialkyl ketone or alkylphenyl ketone were reduced by borane in THF to give chiral secondary amines in high yield and up to 74% ee. Among them, N-(2-pentyl)aniline, N-(3-methyl-2-butyl)aniline and N-(4-methyl-2-pentyl)aniline have not been reported before.

Key words: reduction, chiral spirobroate ester, asymmetric catalysis, prochiral imine
