An impressive example of the directed “twisting” of bridged, configuratively labile biaryls with chiral H ‐nucleophiles is seen in the atropo‐enantioselective, ring‐opening reduction of lactone 1 to alcohol 2 with borane THF in the presence of the chiral oxazaborolidine 3 . After one recrystallization 2 is enantiomerically pure.
