A new synthetic catalyst, capable of acting like an enzyme in the accomplishment of direct aldol reactions, is presented. Excellent results, in terms of chemical yields and diastereo-/enantiomeric ratios, are reported for the catalyzed additions of cyclohexanone to variously substituted benzaldehydes.
