Abstract

Diarylprolinol was found to be an effective organocatalyst of the direct, enantioselective aldol reaction of commercially available polymeric ethyl glyoxylate, affording γ-ethoxycarbonyl-β-hydroxy aldehydes, versatile synthetic intermediates, in good yield with excellent enantioselectivity.
