The purpose of this research is to develop environmentally friendly Zn^<2+>-catalysts which have three dimensionally functionalized inner sphere in water solution for asymmetric synthesis. The catalysts were applied to an asymmetric synthesis of rare sugars which is known to be a little in nature and have bioactivities. Therefore, it is considered that the asymmetric aldol reaction for the synthesis of the rare sugars contributes development of its usage for pharmaceutical agents and functional foods.
