We describe herein the first facile synthesis of chiral triazoles through side chain functionalization. Readily available C-vinyl triazoles were used as starting materials, followed by sequential epoxidation, rearrangement and reduction to give the corresponding hydroxyl-triazoles. The CalB lipase catalyzed kinetic resolution gave enantiomerically pure (>99% ee) chiral triazoles in excellent yield. These new chiral TAs were also successfully applied as ligands in asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes.
