Abstract

Abstract Aldol processes of aldehydes with secondary alcohols were observed by using a LiClO 4-amine reagent under very mild conditions. Unusual regio-and stereoselectivities observed during this new transformation are discussed. Stereotriades as well as stereopentades with configurations previously unattainable by aldol methodologies were isolated.
