A new catalytic system, generated from the readily available and inexpensive β‐sulfonamide alcohol L*, Ti(O i Pr) 4 , Et 2 Zn, and tertiary amine base (R 3 N), effectively catalyzes the enantioselective addition of various terminal alkynes including some quite challenging alkynes to aldehydes in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Up to 96% yield and >99% enantioselectivity were achieved with the use of N , N ‐diisoproylethylamine (DIPEA) as an additive in this asymmetric addition. Chirality, 2009. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
