51. Aromatic aldehydes display good reactivity and diastereoselectivity, but poor enantioselectivities are observed. Additionally, unactivated aliphatic aldehydes exhibit poor reactivity, providing diminished yields of product. Studies aimed at addressing these deficiencies are in progress.

The absolute stereochemical assignments of the aldol adducts are made in analogy to that determined for the 5-bromophthalimido derivative of aldol adduct 1b and the 2-bromo-5-nitrobenzoate of 3b, which were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis using the anomalous dispersion method.
