title: A Useful Modification of the Evans Magnesium Halide-Catalyzedanti-Aldol Reaction: Application to Enolizable Aldehydes.
abstract: A practical protocol for use of the magnesium halide-catalyzedanti-aldol reaction of an EvansN-acyloxazolidinone with enolizable aldehydes is reported. The yields ofanti-aldol adducts for saturated or unsaturated and branched or unbranched aliphatic aldehydes are preparatively useful.
