The title reaction permits carboxylic acids of the chiral pool to be modified at the asymmetric center with retention of configuration . It is not only preparatively simple but also mechanistically interesting. By steric fixation of radicals in the solid state an otherwise unselective coupling becomes a diastereo‐selective one. The chemical yields are 40–60%, the diastereo‐selectivities 90–95% de.
