A novel aldol reaction of alkenyl trichloroacetates with cc-keto esters was realized by using dibutyltin dimethoxide as a catalyst, which was regenerated by the addition of methanol. The reaction was found to be remarkably accelerated by the addition of a catalytic amount of a bidentate phosphine-silver(I) complex. Use of the BINAP-silver triflate (AgOTf) complex as the chiral co-catalyst resulted in the formation of optically active aldol products possessing a chiral tertiary carbon with up to 93% ee. This catalytic method was further applied to the asymmetric reaction of diketene with methyl benzoylformate.
