Aminoalcohols are vital motifs in chemical synthesis; however, traditional synthetic technologies relying on polar disconnections have various limitations. Now, such motifs can be expediently accessed by leveraging a radical-based approach, enabling the stereoselective preparation of an array of valuable building blocks.
