Asymmetric oxidation of β-ketoesters by the benzoyl peroxide quench of their lithioenamines formed with (S)-valine t-butyl esters has been accomplished with good enantioselectivity for the formation of tertiary benzoate esters. This procedure thus enables generation of tertiary alcohols in protected form.
