In the last decade, zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric carboalumination of alkenes (ZACA) has been developed [65]. Most commonly used catalyst is bis... 

Negishi reported the zirconium-catalyzed enantioselective carboalumination of alkenes, which consisted of a hydroalumination/alkylalumination tandem process.133-135 This permits the asymmetric syntheses of methyl-substituted alkanols and other derivatives, typically with >90% ee, which represents an increase in ee value by 15% from the previously obtained 70-80%.136-138 The hydroalumination/zirconium-catalyzed enantioselective carboalumination of alkenes was carried out using (—)-bis(neomenthylindenyl)zirconium dichloride as the catalyst (Table 15).133...
