The concept of Lewisbase activation of Lewisacids has been reduced to practice for catalysis of the aldolreaction of silyl ketene acetals and silyl dienol ethers with aldehydes. The weakly acidic species, silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4), can be activated by binding of a strongly Lewis basic chiral phosphoramide, leading to in situ formation of a chiral Lewisacid. This species has proven to be a competent
Dynamic Kinetic Resolution with Enantioselective Borohydride Reduction Catalyzed by Optically Active β-Ketoiminato Cobalt(II) Complexes: Highly Diastereo- and Enantioselective Preparation of Optically Active<i>anti</i>-Aldol Compounds
Opticallyactive anti-2-alkyl-3-hydroxy esters were stereoselectively obtained from the corresponding 2-alkyl-3-keto esters using enantioselective borohydride reduction along with dynamic kinetic resolution in the presence of opticallyactive β-ketoiminato cobalt complex catalysts. The reduction system provided an alternative preparation for anti-aldol compounds with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities

Metallic tin or activated metallic tin, prepared by reduction of stannous chloride with lithiumaluminumhydride, smoothly reacts with α-haloesters to yield tin enolates, which in turn react with carbonylcompounds under mild conditions to give, after hydrolysis, β-hydroxyesters in high yields.

A smooth, rapid, quantitative, and highly stereoselective synthesis of either Z or E enolates from representative esters has been achieved with dicyclohexyliodoborane, Chx(2)BI, in the presence of a suitable tertiary amine, such as triethylamine or N,N-diisopropylethylamine. A systematic investigation of the enolboration of ethyl propionate and ethyl phenylacetate, as model esters, by the various Chx(2)BX and BX-9-BBN reagents (X = OMs, I, and Br) established Chx(2)BI as the preferred reagent in terms of yield and selectivity. Further study of representative esters (RCH(2)-COOR') with Chx(2)BI established that the steric requirements of both the alkyl group (R) at the ct-position and the alkoxy group (OR') play a significant role in controlling the enolate geometry. The steric requirements of the amine (R''N-3) also contribute considerably to the stereoselectivity of the reaction, The present study provides a simple procedure for the synthesis of Z or E enol borinates from representative esters (RCH(2)COOR') using the combined stereodirecting effects of the alkyl (R) and the alkoxy (OR') groups. These enol borinates are highly reactive with aldehydes at temperatures as low as -78 degrees C and are exceptionally stereoselective even at 0 degrees C, In this exploratory study, the synthesis of stereoselective enolates from representative esters (RCH(2)COOR') using Chx(2)BI/R''N-3 is discussed, with special emphasis on the effects of the steric requirements of R and OR' in controlling the enolate geometry.
