The first example of an asymmetric β-peroxidation of nitroalkenes is disclosed. The reaction is promoted by catalytic loadings of a commercially available diaryl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol derivative and tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. A synthetically useful class of peroxides is obtained in good yield and enantioselectivity (up to 84% ee).
