Abstract
The one-pot, direct cross-Mannich reaction between two different aldehydes has been realized for the first time with high syn-diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity by use of L-proline as organocatalyst. Side reactions, such as aldol condensation, can be suppressed at low reaction temperatures.
