Metal enolates in organic synthesis

T. Mukaiyama
1983 Pure and Applied Chemistry  
Metal enolates play an important role in organic synthesis and in particular metal enolate mediated aldol type reactions provide very useful synthetic tools in stereoselective and asymmetric carbon-carbon bond formations. Three types of metal enolate mediated aldol reactions developed in our laboratory are discussed.
