A‐mine of possibilities : An effective method for the conversion of achiral ketenes into enantioenriched protected amines was developed by tuning the structure and reactivity of a catalyst on the basis of a mechanistic hypothesis. The method involved the catalytic asymmetric addition of hydrazoic acid to ketenes, followed by a Curtius rearrangement (see scheme).
