Zhang, Yingchao Sammakia, Tarek Synthesis of a New <i>N</i>-Acetyl Thiazolidinethione Reagent and Its Application to a Highly Selective Asymmetric Acetate Aldol Reaction A new <i>N</i>-acetyl thiazolidinethione reagent, which undergoes highly diastereoselective aldol reactions upon enolization with dichlorophenylborane and (−)-sparteine and subsequent treatment with a variety of aldehydes, is described. This reagent is pseudoenantiomeric to an l-<i>tert</i>-leucine-derived reagent recently described by us and is useful because it avoids the prohibitively costly d-<i>tert</i>-leucine.
