α-Phenylthioalkylsamarium, prepared by a treatment of 1-chloroethyl phenyl sulfide with SmI2 in THF, reacted with aldehydes to give β-phenylthioalkanols with high diastereoselectivities; the configurational stability of the samarium reagents was also observed in their reaction with a chiral aldehyde.
