New small γ-turn type <i>N</i>-primary amino terminal tripeptides were synthesized and their functionality as an organocatalyst was examined in the asymmetric aldol reaction of various ketones with different aromatic aldehydes under solvent-free neat conditions to afford the desired chiral <i>anti</i>-aldol products in good to excellent chemical yields, diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities (up to 99%, up to <i>syn</i> : <i>anti</i>/13 : 87 dr, up to 99% ee). ...[more]
