4(R)-(2,4,6-Trimethylbenzyloxy)-(S)-proline, a new chiral catalyst for the asymmetric aldol reaction, was prepared conveniently. Efficient enantioselective catalysis of aldol reactions of various benzaldehydes with neat acetone solvent was achieved with high yield (up to 91.0%) and good selectivities (up to 88.5% ee) by using 5 mol% of the catalyst.

Key words: asymmetric, direct aldol reaction, chiral catalyst
