Catalytic nonenzymatic kinetic resolution (KR) of racemates remains one of the most powerful tools to prepare enantiopure compounds, which dominantly relies on the manipulation of reactive functional groups. Moreover, catalytic KR of organic azides represents a formidable challenge due to the small size and instability of the azido group. Here, an effective KR of cyclic benzylic azides through site- and enantioselective C(sp 3 )–H oxidation is described. The manganese catalyzed oxidative KR reaction exhibits good functional group tolerance, and is applicable to a range of tetrahydroquinoline- and indoline-based organic azides with excellent site- and enantio-discrimination. Computational studies elucidate that the effective chiral recognition is derived from hydrogen bonding interaction between substrate and catalyst.
