Several novel epoxy monomers, (S,S)- or (S,R)-3-(glycidyloxy)methy1-2,2'-bis(methoxymethyloxy)-1, 1'-binaphthalene and (S,S)- or (S,R)-6-(glycidyloxy)methy1-2,2'-bis(methoxymethyloxy)-1,1'-binaphthalene, which were derived from chiral BINOL and epichlorohydrin, were synthesized and underwent anionic polymerization and deprotection of the MOM groups to obtain soluble polyethers. These polyethers were used to induce the enantioselective borane reduction of prochiral ketones. The substrates gave up to 98% yield with over 99% ee values. The recovered polyethers could be reused many times to induce the enantioselective reduction of prochiral ketones without losing their enantioselective induction ability. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
