Abstract
A series of sulfonamides (2–4) were prepared from natural amino acids and used as additives in the BINOL‐Ti(O__i__Pr)~4~ catalyzed enantioselective alkynylation of aldehydes. The reactions proceeded smoothly with good yields and very high ee's (up to 99%) in most cases. Chirality 19:638–641, 2007 © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

## Abstract A new catalytic system, generated from the readily available and inexpensive β‐sulfonamide alcohol L\*, Ti(O^i^Pr)~4~, Et~2~Zn, and tertiary amine base (R~3~N), effectively catalyzes the enantioselective addition of various terminal alkynes including some quite challenging alkynes to al
