The enantioselective transformation of many aldehydes to tert ‐butyl esters of 3‐hydroxycarboxylic acids is possible with the titanium reagent 1 (R * , see preceding communication). Acetate enolates could not be directly used previously. Surprisingly, this aldol reaction is hardly temperature dependent, so that a high induction may also be achieved at room temperature. The reagents (CPTiC1 3 and R * OH) can be recovered.
