Synthetically useful enantiomeric excesses were obtained for the first time in radical reductions with optically active tin hydrides, as illustrated in the reaction of 2 with 1 [Eq. (a)]. Moreover, the reaction, the reaction can also be performed catalytically by using the appropriate tin bromide and Na[B(CN)H 3 ] instead of 1 .
