There are only a few examples of applications of magnesium enolates in aldol additions. A very early example of a successful employment of magnesium enolates in stereoselective aldol additions was reported by Solladie and coworkers.1,2,3 Deprotonation of sulfinyl acetate with tert-butylmagnesium bromide yielded aldol adducts with moderate to high enantioselectivities (Scheme 2.2.1).
