New chiral N-chloroimidodicarbonates, which function as efficient chiral chlorinating agents, were designed and synthesized. Among these, C(2)-symmetric (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-menthyl-N-chloroimidodicarbonate 2a provided moderate to good enantioselectivity (up to 40%) for the chlorination of silyl enol ethers to afford alpha-chloroketones only in the
