Highly enantioselective arylation of aryl aldehydes catalyzed by (S)-H8 -BINOL-Ti(Oi-Pr)2 complex in the presence of N-methylmorpholine (NMM) as an effective and inexpensive additive is described for the first time. We found high enantioselectivity and yield but successfully reduced the equivalents of nucleophiles triarylaluminums by 50% compared with our previous report. The practicability of the process was thereby greatly increased.
