A simple and efficient method for C‐2 deuterium labeling of 3,4‐di‐ tert ‐butoxypyrroline N ‐oxide, a useful chiral building block in azaheterocycles syntheses, is presented. Selective and quantitative deuterium incorporation (> 99 %) was achieved by base‐catalyzed H/D exchange in D 2 O under mild reaction conditions. A mechanistic pathway based on kinetic and computational data was proposed. The labeled nitrone was used in the synthesis of C‐8a deuterated (1 R ,2 R ,8a R )‐lentiginosine.
