Unsubstituted and anti aldol products with excellent diastereo‐ and enantioselectivity are formed when enolates, generated from the corresponding thioacetates and thiopropionates by using bromoborane 1 and triethylamine, are treated with aldehydes. Bromoborane 1 was designed based on transition state computer modeling and then synthesized.
