A systematic study to evaluate the ability of various organocatalysts to catalyze the aldol reaction between acetone and 2,2,2-trifluoromethyl-l-phenylethanone was undertaken. Benchmark organocatalysts failed to catalyze this reaction. However, a prolinamide-thiourea consisting of (S)-prolinamide, (1S,2S)-diphenylethylenediamine, and (S)-ditert butyl aspartate proved to be an efficient catalyst, providing tertiary alcohols as the products of the reaction between ketones and perfluoroalkyl ketones in high to quantitative yields and high enantioselectivities (up 81% ee) at a catalyst loading of 2 mol %.

series of N,N-disubstituted chiral diamine ligands on the catalytic asymmetric aldol reactions between trifluoromethyl ketones and linear aliphaticketones for the construction of chiral trifluoromethyl tertiary alcohols. A highly efficient primary–tertiary diamine ligand derived from (1R,2R)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine was developed, which catalyzed the reactions with up to 99% yield and up to 94%
