The Guerbet reaction was discovered more than 100 years ago. The use of Noyori's catalyst has now enabled the development of the first asymmetric version of this reaction, and thus the highly enantioselective synthesis of chiral alcohols, as described by C. Wang and co‐workers in their Research Article on page 11408.
