The enantioselective formation of C À C bonds is an area of intense research. [1,2] The asymmetric addition of alkynyl reagents to aldehydes is very useful for the synthesis of chiral secondary propargyl alcohols, which are important building blocks for many chiral organic compounds.

## Abstract A series of β‐sulfonamide alcohol ligands were synthesized from L‐phenylalanine. Titanium complexes of these compounds were used to catalyze the asymmetric addition of phenylacetylene to a number of aldehydes. When the conditions were optimized, 20 mol % of ligand **8a** catalyzed the r
