An efficient method for the enantioselective tandem reductive aldol reaction of methyl acrylate with aldehydes is reported. By using a copper( I) precursor and a proper diphosphane ligand, high reactivities can be reached, with TOF up to 40 000 h(-1). Taniaphos- based ligands lead to enantioselectivities of up to 97% in the case of the major syn diastereoisomer.
