A general approach for the allylation of aldehydes using stable, air-tolerant camphor-based chiral allylboronates under Sc(OTf)3 catalysis is described. This practical methodology provides both syn and anti propionate units and other homoallylic alcohols with very high levels of diastereo- and enantioselectivity for several substrates, including functionalized aliphatic aldehydes useful toward the elaboration of complex natural products.
