In 1989, the asymmetric M ukaiyama aldol reaction mediated by a Lewis acid consisting of a chiral diamine and Sn (II) triflate was reported. The asymmetric M ukaiyama aldol reaction is now widely used as a versatile tool for the construction of highly advanced, multifunctionalized molecules. In this P ersonal A ccount, the history of the development of this powerful methodology and the application of the asymmetric M ukaiyama aldol reaction in the synthesis of natural products are reviewed.
