its applications as a catalyst for the asymmetric aldolreaction. By performing the aldolreaction in [Bmim]NTf2 as a solvent, we report excellent isolated yields of the aldol product (up to 99%), as well as modest to excellent selectivities (dr superior to 99:1. ee up to 89%). Mechanistic insights and the origins of the selectivity of the aldolreaction are discussed on the basis of the results obtained
