Making a mark : Since the 1864 landmark discovery by Adolf von Baeyer, barbituric acids have played a prominent role in organic synthesis. Herein, the first chemoselective monoreduction of barbituric acids to the corresponding hemiaminals is described. The method delivers mono‐ and bicyclic hemiaminal products by a general single‐electron‐transfer polarity reversal mechanism.
