enantioselective allylation of both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes using commercially available (1S,2R)-(+)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol as a chiral auxiliary. Using only two equivalents of allyl bromide, excellent yields and very good to excellent enantioselectivities are obtained. To our knowledge, the enantioselectivities reported herein are the highest obtained for indium-promoted allylations of carbonyl

vinyloxazaborolidines have been synthesized and subsequently hydrogenated using palladium on carbon under ambient conditions to produce, after oxidation of the boronate group, enantiomerically enriched secondary alcohols (up to 20% ee). Herein, the first example of asymmetric hydrogenation utilizing oxazaborolidines as chiralauxiliaries is reported.
