Abstract

A modified Yamamoto-Yanagisawa's catalyst (S)-Tol-BINAP·AgNO3 was successfully applied to a catalytic enantioselective allylation reaction of aldehydes in an aqueous system. The reactions with aromatic aldehydes afforded the desired products in high yields with good stereoselectivities. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
