Abstract

A siloxy serine organocatalyst has been developed to catalyze direct asymmetric aldol reactions in aqueous saline media. The asymmetric aldol reactions between a selection of aromatic aldehydes and cyclohexanone afforded the products in good yields and enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee).
