Optically active propargylic alcohols are important chiral building blocks in asymmetric synthesis, and asymmetric addition of terminal alkynes to aldehydes is one of the most important and interesting procedures by which to prepare these chiral building blocks. In this work we have identified some simple derivatives of (S)-proline and other natural amino acids as chiral ligands that can be combined with Ti(OiPr)(4) and then used to catalyze the asymmetric addition of zinc acetylide, produced in situ by the reaction of phenylacetylene with diethylzinc, to aldehydes. The ee value was as high as 90%. ((C) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005).
