    Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2008 May 28; (20):2343-5. PubMed ID: 18473064.
    Abstract:
    Novel asymmetric 2-furyl additions of (2-furyl)AlEt(2)(THF) to aromatic ketones and one alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone catalyzed by a titanium catalyst of 10-20 mol% (S)-BINOL are reported to furnish tertiary furyl alcohols in good to excellent enantioselectivities of 87-93% ee.
