method for the highlydiastereoselective preparation of anti tertiary homoallylic alcohols has been developed. The reaction of allyltitanocenes, generated by the reductive titanation of various allylic substrates with a titanocene(II) species, with a variety of ketones produced the anti tertiary homoallylic alcohols in good diastereoselectivity, even when using sterically less congested ketones (see scheme;

ether are employed in iridium‐catalyzed enantioselective allylation reactions. The method documented enables their convenient use as surrogates for silyl ketene acetals and silyl enol ethers to prepare γ,δ‐unsaturated esters and protected aldehydes with excellent enantioselectivity. The utility of this novel method has been demonstrated by its implementation in a formal enantioselective synthesis of
