title: Improved synthesis of aza-bis(oxazoline) ligands.
abstract: A straightforward synthesis of chiral aza-bis(oxazoline) (Azabox) ligands from commercially available amino alcohols is described. The new protocol allows access to previously reported Azabox ligands in considerably improved yields but also to new derivatives, including non-C2-symmetrical ones.
