✦ Synopsis
The enantioselective catalysis of organic reactions that involve small organic molecules, known as organocatalysis, has become a rapidly growing area of research, as it offers operational simplicity together with mild reaction conditions and is environmentally benign. [1] Although organocatalysis has proven to be beneficial in many respects, one critical drawback inherent in the methodologies reported to date is the inadequate catalytic efficiency. [2] Most organocatalytic reactions are performed at substrate-to-catalyst (S/C) molar ratios of 10 or less to achieve sufficient yields and avoid loss of

## Abstract A novel cyclic dialkyl phosphate was synthesized starting from (+)‐diethyl tartrate. Its catalytic activity as a chiral Brønsted acid has been examined in the Mannich‐type reaction of a ketene silyl acetal with aldimines as a model reaction. The corresponding β‐amino acid esters were ob
