Enantioselective synthesis of (R)-2-methylalkanoic acids: A convenient approach to α-substituted chiral carboxylic acid derivatives

Racemization-free deacylation of N-acylimidazolidine-2-ones using lithium hydroperoxide affords the corresponding α-substituted chiral carboxylic acids in high yield while permitting recovery of the chiral auxiliary.
