Substituted arenes flanked by two bulky triethylsilyl groups were regiospecifically lithiated at the 5‐position with nBuLi⋅PMDTA at 25 °C. The resulting aryllithiums reacted with a broad range of electrophiles such as ketones, isocyanates, Weinreb amides, allyl bromides, and CO2 at 25 °C. These bis‐silylated arenes were then converted in simple reaction sequences into silyl‐free tetrasubstituted arenes. This

Alkeneaziridination is a highly versatile transformation for the construction of chiral nitrogen-containing compounds. Inspired by the success of analogous substrate-directed epoxidations, we report an enantioselective aziridination of alkenyl alcohols, which enables asymmetric nitrene transfer to alkenes with varied substitution patterns, including those not covered by the current protocols. We believe
