Abstract

The first example of enantioselective base-induced [1,2]-Stevens rearrangement was achieved by using the newly developed D-glucose-derived lithium alkoxide as a chiral promoter. This rearrangement provides an α-amino ketone having a pseudoquaternary chiral center in an enantioenriched form.
