BF 3 can be used in combination with organolithium/strong Lewis base complexes for the enantioselective nucleophilic ring‐opening or the carbenoidic rearrangement of various meso ‐oxiranes with excellent yields and ee values of up to 87 %. Mechanistic aspects of these reactions are considered. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)
