Abstractmagnified imageThe scope of a novel alkoxyallene‐based pyridine synthesis was expanded to enantiopure carboxylic acids and nitriles as starting materials. The enantiomeric purity of the chiral α‐secondary carboxylic acids and nitriles was completely preserved during this reaction sequence thus allowing the one‐pot preparation of a whole range of 4‐hydroxypyridines or their 4‐pyridinone tautomers in good yields.
