Both catalysts work : A highly enantioselective direct Mannich‐type reaction of N ‐Boc‐protected aldimines with 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds has been developed with the use of a chiral phosphoric acid in the presence or absence of Ca II . The absolute stereoselectivity of the phosphoric acid catalysis was found to be opposite to that of the calcium phosphate catalysis (see scheme; Boc= tert ‐butoxycarbonyl).
