The surprising reactivity under basic conditions of 2,5‐diketopiperazines activated by N ‐Boc substituents provides a highly stereoselective pathway to pyrrolidine‐2,4‐diones. A wide range of valuable pharmaceutical scaffolds can be synthesized by adding an alkylating reagent during the course of the reaction (see scheme). R 1 =alkyl; R 2 =alkyl, benzyl; Boc= tert ‐butoxycarbonyl.
