An efficient organo-catalytic, highly syn-stereoselective method for aldol additions between enolizable aldehydes and hydroxyacetone as well as dihydroxyacetone is disclosed. Reactions proceed in the presence of tertiary amines at room temperature. The al

Methylglyoxal is successfully converted to the tin(II) enediolate on reatment with activated metallic tin.The tin(II) enediolate reacts with several aldehydes to give α,β-dihydroxyketones in good yields.
