✦ Synopsis
Titanium-mediated aldol reactions of 1 and (S)-2-tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy aldehydes ( matched pair) afford syn Felkin diastereomers in excellent yield and absolute stercochemical control. Having established that chain length does not affect the yield of the titanium aldol reactions, we have been able to achieve short, high yielding and enantioselective syntheses of NFX-2 and Antimycinone.

Aldol reactions between the putative Z-enolate derived from 2-methyl-3-pentanone and several chiral ot-tert-butyldiphcnylsilyioxy aldehydes have been studied. The stereoehemical outcome suggests that stereoelectronic effects play a dominant role in these reactions and the results can be accommodated
