Abstract
Unique reactivity is shown by the fluorotitanium complex obtained from TiF4 and 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol. It is more reactive than the chloro-, bromo-, and alkoxytitanium complexes previously employed and catalyzes the enantioselective additions of allyltrimethylsilane to aldehydes [Eq. (a)], providing an alternative to known methods involving the corresponding organotin reagents.
