All articles of this category Stereochemical studies have indicated that functionalized Tr + SbCl 6 - may serve as efficient aldol reaction catalysts by judicious choice of a silyl component. The aldol addition between TMS ketene acetal derived from γ -butyrolactone and benzaldehyde provided the silyl aldolates with high syn diastereoselectivities. Meerwein salts - ionization - trityl ions - diastereoselective - β -hydroxylactones
