On the [Rh]oad again: A series of optically pure allylic alcohols is obtained through the Rh/BINAP‐catalyzed redox isomerization of racemic allylic alcohols. An improved system involves the use of cationic rhodium and a noncoordinating solvent, in which aromatic and aliphatic allylic alcohols are effectively resolved with k f / k s ( k f =rate of fast reaction, k s =rate of slow reaction) values up to 24.
