Chiral NCN pincer rhodium(III) complexes with bis(imidazolinyl)phenyl ligands were found to be effective catalysts for the allylation of a variety of electronically and structurally diverse aldehydes with allyltributyltin, giving the corresponding optically active homoallylic alcohols in high yields with enantioselectivities of up to 97% ee. These complexes were also applied in the carbonyl–ene reaction
