Abstract
All for one and 1,4-all: Readily available aryl alanes are used in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition reaction with a variety of cyclic and acyclic enones. The enhanced reactivity of the system allows the use of the common binap ligand for the generation of quaternary benzylic stereocenters in excellent enantioselectivity (see scheme).
