From simple achiral starting materials the chiral organoiron( II ) complex 1 can be prepared as either the R or S enantiomer. A Michael addition and subsequent stereospecific alkylation followed by oxidative cleavage of the Fe complex fragment and hydrogenolysis of the O ‐benzyl function yields the α,α‐dialkyl‐α‐hydroxycarbonyl compounds with the desired chirality.
