They tried everything, but it still didn't work . Two research groups report here on their attempts to reproduce the results reported by Breitmaier et al. ( Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1994 , 33 , 454). According to the subsequent statement by E. Breitmaier (see p. 1414 this issue), the claim of absolute asymmetric synthesis in a static homogeneous magnetic field is fraudulent.
