[reaction: see text] Ytterbium trifluoromethanesulfonate [Yb(OTf)3] catalyzed the imino ene reaction of N-tosyl aldimine with alpha-methylstyrene to give a homoallylamine in moderate yield. Furthermore, addition of a catalytic amount of chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCI) dramatically enhanced the imino ene reaction.

Catalytic asymmetric aldol reactions in aqueous media have been developed using Pr(OTf)(3) and chiral bis-pyridino-18-crown-6 1. In the asymmetric aldol reaction using rare earth metal triflates (RE(OTf)(3)) and 1, slight changes in the ionic diameters of the metal cations greatly

A highly enantioselective, quinone Diels-Alder reaction catalyzed by chiral samarium and gadolinium pyridyl-bis(oxazoline) (pybox) complexes has been developed. The reaction scope has been extended to include three quinones and five dienes, all of which exclusively provide the expected endo product
