A highly reactive and robust chiral Brønstedacidcatalyst, chiral N-triflyl thiophosphoramide, was developed. The first metal-free Brønstedacid catalyzed enantioselective protonation reaction of silyl enol ethers was demonstrated using this chiral Brønstedacidcatalyst. The catalyst loading could be reduced to 0.05 mol % without any deleterious effect on the enantioselectivity.
