Due to the different coordinations of acetic acid and trifluoroacetic acid to the boron atom of the enolate 1 , two reaction mechanisms result for the protonation of 1 . The protonation with acetic acid leads to an enrichment of the ( R ) isomer ( R )‐ 2 . while with trifluoroacetic acid ( S ) ‐2 is favored. R * = isopinocampheyl.
