A novel organocatalyzed C-C bond-scission reaction of saturated aldehydes containing a suitable leaving group at the β-position was used for the in situ formation of iminium intermediates, which were then captured by nucleophiles to achieve a direct enantioselective β-alkylation of aldehydes. Within short reaction times, the corresponding β-alkylated aldehyde products were obtained in high yields (48-87%) and with excellent enantioselectivities (84-98%).

Lewis base-Bronsted base bifunctional catalysis is a novel and practical strategy for the asymmetric Michael addition. The addition of malonates to a series of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes can take place under base-base bifunctional catalytic conditions using 0.5-5 mol% of (S)-2-[diphenyl(trimethylsilyloxy) methyl]pyrrolidine as catalyst and 5-30 mol% of lithium 4-fluorobenzoate as additive base with up to 99% ee.
