Abstract

Abstract In the presence of a chiral promoter consisted of chiral diamine coordinated tin(II) triflate and tributyltin fluoride, silyl enol ether of S-ethyl ethanethioate reacts with α-ketoesters to afford the corresponding aldol-type adducts, 2-substituted malates, in good yields with excellent enantiomeric excesses.
