Abstract

An asymmetric Baylis–Hillman reaction protocol has been developed using a chiral pyrrolidine based organocatalyst. The catalytic loading works well with a wide range of aromatic aldehydes to afford the corresponding β-hydroxy acrylate with high enantioselectivity up to 100% with excellent yields. The organocatalyst shows excellent enantioselectivity with 10 mol% of catalytic loading at room temperature condition.
