Several fluorinated aluminum tris(2,6-diphenylphenoxide) (ATPH) deriva
tives have been synthesized to evaluate, as functionallized Lewis acid
receptors, the conjugate alkylation ability to alpha,beta-unsaturated
aldehydes by the combined use of alkyllithium nucleophiles. Among the
se, 3,4,5-F-3-ATPH was found to be the most satisfactory. (C) 1997 Els
