Efficient synthesis of several new atropisomeric amino alcohols having 1‐phenyl‐1 H ‐pyrrole skeleton are reported. Steric arrangements of the products were confirmed by a single‐crystal X‐ray measurement. The consequences of the size of the N ‐substituents on enantioinduction were examined by employing the enantioselective catalytic addition of diethylzinc to a series of substituted benzaldehydes (yields 91–97%, up to 85% enantiomeric excess). The special effect of the ortho methoxy group of the substrate on the enantioinduction is also interpreted. Chirality 27:216–222, 2015 . © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
