Abstract

Panacea for aldol desymmetrizations: we describe an easy entry for the desymmetrization of 4-substituted-cyclohexanones catalyzed by proline, using as cocatalysts different hydrogen-bonding donors (see scheme), which dramatically improves the catalytic efficiency of proline in desymmetrization reactions.
