title: Diastereoselective and enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reactions of alpha-ketoesters using hydrogen bond catalysis.
abstract: Hydrogen bond catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions of alpha-ketoesters proceed in high diastereo- and enantioselectivities, giving products possessing two chiral centers, of which one is a tertiary alcohol.
