A direct, mild, and general method for the enantioselective allylsilylation of aldehydes with allyl chlorides is reported. The reactions are effectively catalyzed by 5 mol % of n-Bu4NBr, and this rate acceleration allows the use of complex allyl donors in fragment-coupling reactions and of electron-deficient allyl donors. The results are (1) significant progress toward a “universal” asymmetric aldehyde allylation reaction that can reliably and highly stereoselectively couple any allyl chloride_aldehyde combination and (2) the discovery of a novel mode of nucleophilic catalysis for aldehyde allylsilylation reactions.
