Significance

In this paper, the authors have developed highly enantioselective and efficient carbonyl-ene reactions of ethyl glyoxylate catalyzed by the In(III)-PyBox complex. This methodology has several advantages, such as operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, low catalyst loading (<5 mol%), and high enantioselectivities and yields.
