We document an easy protocol for the enantioselective conjugate reduction of isomeric mixtures of nitroalkenes. Employing a catalyst from CuO t Bu and JOSIPHOS, conjugated and nonconjugated isomers are interconverted by the action of quaternary ammonium bases, and both reduced enantioselectively to the corresponding nitroalkanes.
