Preface
Stereoselectivity is one of the most important aspects for natural product chemists.Following the increasing possibility of detection and assignment of stereogeniccenters, a tremendous increase in stereoselective methods of organic reactions,particularly aldol reactions, has been noticed. In the beginning of this development,only sporadic examples of stereoselective aldol reactions were described, mostly inthe context of total syntheses of natural products. An outstanding early exampleis the R. B. Woodward’s proline-catalyzed aldol addition in the total synthesis oferythronolide A at the Harvard University in 1981. In the following three decades,a vast arsenal of stereoselective aldol additions has been developed (see Figure).

This book provides a compre-hensive review of modern aldolreactions, especially in the aspectof how to achieve high stereos-electivity – diastereoselectivity aswell as enantioselectivity. Stereos-election is discussed under severaldifferent aspects. One aspect is thedeployment of different substrates –acetate or propionate aldol reactions.Another aspect is the mode of actionincluding metal enolate chemistry,Lewis acid as well as Lewis basecatalysis, enzymatic catalysis, andorganocatalysis. There are someoverlappings of these aspects in thechapters covering the cross-cuttingthemes of vinyloguos Mukaiyama reaction or asymmetric inductions (e.g., com-pare Scheme 1.50 with Scheme 2.59) or total synthesis of dolastatin 19 – (compareScheme 1.82 with Scheme 5.8). These overlappings, however, are intentional inorder to give a comprehensive insight into the techniques for installing requiredconfigurations during aldol reactions. The utility of the corresponding methodsis shown in the context of total syntheses of natural products. All chapters arethoroughly well written by experts in the respective fields.
XII Preface
It is my pleasure to express profound gratitude to the 15 authors for their hugeendeavor to organize and summarize this vast amount of material. It has been agreat pleasure for me to work with this team of authors at all times. Finally, myspecial thanks go to Elke Maase and Bernadette Gmeiner at WILEY for their finework in making this book a reality.
