A reaction with organolithium compounds and the chiral amine (—)‐sparteine deprotonates carbamates such as 1 in the α‐position forming chiral lithio compounds 2 , as shown by D. Hoppe et al. [Eq. (a)]. These react with high stereoselectivity with a variety of electrophiles to yield nonracemic, chiral compounds (see also the communication on p. 1505ff). R 1 = alkenyl, R 2 = C(O)N i Pr 2 , R 3 = n BuLi.
