Novel intermolecular carbon radical addition to a nitrone: asymmetric synthesis of α-amino acidsElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: experimental procedures. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/cc/b2/b211570k/

A nitrone was used as a synthetically useful radical acceptor in carbon–carbon bond-forming radical reactions; the intermolecular addition of alkyl radicals to chiral glyoxylic nitrone was studied; a high degree of stereocontrol in radical addition to glyoxylic nitrone was achieved to provide a new method for asymmetric synthesis of α-amino acids.
