Many chiral ethers have important physiological activities. Although many asymmetric hydroalkoxylations of olefins with alcohols or phenols have been developed to make chiral ethers, challenges still remain in achieving high reactivity and selectivity over an ever-increasing diversity of alkenes and alcohols. In this review, recent developments on catalytic asymmetric alkene hydroalkoxylations are summarized based on the substitution patterns of alkenes.1 Introduction2 Asymmetric Hydroalkoxylation of Non-Activated Alkenes2.1 Intramolecular Additions2.2 Intermolecular Additions3 Asymmetric Hydroalkoxylation of Enol Ethers3.1 Intramolecular Additions3.2 Intermolecular Additions4 Asymmetric Hydroalkoxylation of α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds4.1 α,β-Unsaturated Ketones and Aldehydes as Substrates4.2 α,β-Unsaturated Esters, Amides and Carboxylic Acids as Substrates5 Asymmetric Hydroalkoxylation of Allenes5.1 Intramolecular Additions5.2 Intermolecular Additions6 Conclusion

Halolactones are used both in chemical synthesis as intermediates as well as in various industries. These compounds may be secondary metabolites of living organisms, although they are mainly obtained by chemical synthesis. The substrates for the synthesis of chloro-, bromo- and iodolactones are often unsaturated carboxylic acids, and sometimes they are unsaturated esters. The article presents a number of different methods for the production of halolactones, both racemic mixtures and enantiomerically enriched compounds.
