Abstract: Novel chiral aminoalcohol catalysts and methods for their preparation are provided. The first catalyst is prepared via selective hydrogenation of one of two benzene rings in a precursor. The aminoalcohol promotes the asymmetric addition of organozinc reagents to aldehydes to afford optically active alcohols or their esters. The second catalyst is prepared by selective dialkylation of 3-exo-aminoisoborneol with a 2-haloethyl ether. The aminoalcohol promotes the addition of organozinc reagents to aliphatic aldehydes containing a &bgr;-branch with greatly enhanced enantioselectivity relative to DAIB.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel methods and devices for iontophoretically administering therapeutic doses of integrin receptor antagonists in a controlled manner through the skin. Such integrin receptor antagonists include but are not limited to antagonists of the IIb/IIIa and &agr;v&bgr;3 integrins and related cell surface adhesive protein receptors.
