Asymmetric Vinylogous Aldol-type Reactions of Aldehydes with Allyl Phosphonate and Sulfone

Summary: Two catalytic asymmetric vinylogous aldol-type reactions of aldehydes with allyl phosphonate and allyl sulfone have been uncovered in good to high yields for the first time. The bulky ligand—(R)-DTBM-SEGPHOS—was found to be the key to perfectly control both regio- and enantioselectivities....
