Abstract
The asymmetric ene reactions of prochiral chloroaldehydes, chloral and 2,3-dichlorobutanal with 2-methylpropanal in the presence of BF3 l-me nthylethyl etherate gave optically active homoallylic alcohols in 16-2 2% ee. The dechlorination of the chloro alcohols lead to the unsaturat ed derivatives of alcohols.
