(+)- or (-)-p-Menthane-S-carboxaldehyde is made in two easy steps from (+)- or (-)-menthone, respectively. This auxiliary allows for the synthesis of carbonyl compounds bearing a α-chiral quaternary carbon. The flexibility, efficiency, and ease of use of

Menthyl carboxaldehyde is used as a chiral auxiliary to make quaternary amino acids of either configuration via a stereodivergent approach that includes an SN2′ displacement by a cuprate reagent and a Curtius rearrangement as key steps. Copyright
