The catalytic enantioselective protonation of simple enolate was achieved using chiral proton source, (S,S)-imide 1 which possesses an asymmetric 2-oxazoline ring, as a catalyst. Treatment of the lithium enolate 4 with (S,S)-imide 1 (0.1 equiv) followed by addition of bulky phenol derivative or β-diketone as achiral proton source (1 equiv) afforded (R)-2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone (5) with high enantioselectivity.
