Angular 2 ng-required

I made a model-driven form in angular 2, and one of the input fields must show up only if a checkbox above is unchecked.I did this with *ngIf. My question is how can I set that input required only if the checkbox is unchecked? In angular 1.x i could make this happen with the ng-required="condition" in the view.

Here is the html:

//the checkbox

<div class="checkbox col-sm-9">
   <label>
     <input type="checkbox"  id="getCompanyAddress" style="cursor: pointer;" [formControl]="form.controls['address']" >Use the company address 
  </label>
</div>

// the option input:

<div *ngIf="form.value.address == false" class="form-group" [ngClass] = "{'has-error':!form.controls['address'].valid && form.controls['address'].touched}" >
 <label for="add_gestion_adress" class="col-sm-3 control-label">Address
 </label>
  <div class="col-sm-9"><textarea rows="1" id="add_gestion_adress" class="form-control" name="add_gestion_adress" [formControl]="form.controls['address']" ></textarea>
  </div>
</div>

//and the model code:

   form: FormGroup;
    constructor(fb:FormBuilder){
      this.form = fb.group({
        'name': [null,Validators.compose([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(1)])],
        'type': ["en gros",Validators.compose([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(2)])],
        'person':[null,Validators.compose([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(1)])],
        'address':[false,Validators.compose([Validators.minLength(1)])],
        'locality':[null, Validators.compose([Validators.required])],
        'county':[null,Validators.compose([Validators.required])],
        'country':[null,Validators.compose([Validators.required])]
      })

    }

<textarea [required]="your angular expression">

The above works in the latest version of Angular 4
