Abstract: 

Short lipophilic oligopeptides utilizing nucleophilic N‐π‐methyl histidine residues catalyze the desymmetrization of meso‐1,2‐diols
with enantiomeric ratios of up to 94:6. Direct one‐pot oxidation, which
avoids the well‐known racemization of the monoacylated product,
directly leads to α‐acetoxy ketones with enantiomeric ratios of up to
97:3 and 97 % yield.
