Abstract
A mild method for α-hydroxylation of N-acyl oxazolidinones by asymmetric radical addition of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine N-oxy (TEMPO) radical to titanium enolates was developed. The high diastereoselectivity and broad scope of the reaction show synthetic utility for the α-hydroxylation of substrates that are not tolerant to strongly basic conditions.
