The first highly stereoselective and facile synthesis ofα‐trichloromethylamines is described by using a nucleophilic trichloromethylation strategy. With tetrabutylammonium triphenyldifluorosilicate (TBAT) as the mediator, the trichloromethyl anion (CCl 3 – ) from TMSCCl 3 can be transferred to N ‐( tert ‐butylsulfinyl)aldimines in excellent yields and with high diastereoselectivity (≥99:1  dr ).
