highly chemo- and enantioselective cross-benzoin reaction between aliphatic aldehydes and α-ketoesters. This methodology represents the first high yielding and highly enantioselective intermolecular cross-benzoin reaction using an organocatalyst (up to 94% ee). Further diastereoselectivereduction of the products gives access to densely oxygenated compounds with high chemo- and diastereoselectivity.
