A More Comprehensive and Highly Practical Solution to Enantioselective Aldehyde Crotylation

Abstract
The enantioselective crotylation of aldehydes with 1,2-diaminochlorocrotylsilane reagents is effectively catalyzed by Sc(OTf)3. The one significant limitation on the utility of these reagents − substrate scope − has thus been addressed. The net result is the most comprehensive and highly practical method for enantioselective aldehyde crotylation yet advanced.
