A highly efficient Mukaiyama aldolreaction between ketones and trimethylsilyl enolates catalyzed by sodium phenoxide-phosphine oxides as simple homogeneous Lewis base catalysts (0.5-10 mol %) was developed, which minimized competing retro-aldolreaction. For a variety of aromatic ketones and aldimines, aldol and Mannich-type products with an alpha-quaternary carbon center were obtained in good to
