[reaction: see text] Lithium aminoborohydride (LAB) reagents promote the amination of 2-fluoropyridine under mild reaction conditions, providing 2-(dialkylamino)pyridines in excellent yield and purity. Treatment of 2-fluoropyridine with 1.1 equiv of lithium aminoborohydride at room temperature affords complete conversion after 1

Lithium aminoborohydride (LAB) reagents initiate the amination or reduction of alkyl methanesulfonate esters, as dictated by reaction conditions. Alkyl methanesulfonate esters treated with unhindered LABs provide tertiary amines in excellent yield. Reduction to the corresponding alkane is achieved using a

here are many optically active organic compounds of biological and medicinal significance. For example, statine analogs, antibiotics, anesthetics, heterocyclic compounds, unusual amino acids, and insect pheromones all contain stereogenic centers. There is, therefore, a continuous need for new asymmetric methodology.
