Chiral α-tertiary hydroxyaldehydes are very versatile building blocks in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report the first examples of a catalytic asymmetric protocol for the synthesis of such compounds from readily available α-halo or α-hydroxy ketones or enol silyl ethers with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. Its synthetic utility is demonstrated in the short, efficient formal synthesis of (S)-oxybutynin. In this process, the chiral ligand controls the regioselectivity as well as the enantioselectivity.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A convenient access to substituted allyl enol carbonates was established through the reaction of ketone enolates with the complex of allyl 1H-imidazole-1-carboxylates and boron trifluoride etherate.
