Abstract
Abstract The first example of an asymmetric β‐peroxidation of nitroalkenes is disclosed. The reaction is promoted by catalytic loadings of a commercially available diaryl‐2‐pyrrolidinemethanol derivative and tert ‐butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. A synthetically useful class of peroxides is obtained in good yield and enantioselectivity (up to 84% ee ).
