A highlyenantioselectiveHenryreaction has been developed using a chiral copper(II)–glucoBOX complex. The catalytic system works well with a wide range of aromatic, aliphatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes to afford the corresponding nitroalkanols with high enantioselectivity (up to 99%) in excellent yields (up to 95%). The catalyst shows good enantioselectivity with 10 mol % of loading at easily attainable
