The stereochemical descriptor for the enantiomer of glycidol used is incorrect. Scheme 2 and the first sentence of the fourth paragraph (page 5479, left column) should read (R)-glycidol not (S)-glycidol. This error also appears in the Supporting Information (pages 7–10). The authors apologize for this oversight and note that this correction does not affect the results presented in the original Communication.
