Titanium mediated asymmetric Mannich reactions using imidazolidin-2-thione as a chiral auxiliary proceeded in good yields and with high diastereoselectivity to afford the anti-products in the presence of PPh3 additive. A non-chelated transition state with the PPh3-bound titanium enolate was proposed to explain the stereochemistry of the product. Alcoholysis of the adducts with methanol cleaved the imidazolidin-2-thione auxiliary to give the methyl esters in good yields and with excellent ee values.

The usefulness of (S)-4-isopropyl-1-phenylimidazolidin-2-thione as a chiral auxiliary in stereoselective propionate and acetate aldol reactions is discussed. Further, the enantioselective synthesis of (R)-baclofen by acetate aldol reaction using the chiral auxiliary was demonstrated. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart New York.
