Stereoselective synthesis of (1 R,2 S)-2-amino-1,3-diols from ( R)-cyanohydrins

Vinyl substituted (1 R,2 S)-amino alcohols 5 were obtained by addition of vinyl magnesium bromide to the corresponding cyanohydrin O-trimethylsilyl ethers (R)- 2 . The O- and N-protected vinyl amino alcohols 6 were ozonized at −78°C in methanol yielding (1 R,2 S)-2-amino-1,3-diols 7 in high enantiom...

Summary:Vinyl substituted (1 R,2 S)-amino alcohols 5 were obtained by addition of vinyl magnesium bromide to the corresponding cyanohydrin O-trimethylsilyl ethers (R)- 2 . The O- and N-protected vinyl amino alcohols 6 were ozonized at −78°C in methanol yielding (1 R,2 S)-2-amino-1,3-diols 7 in high enantiomeric and diastereomeric excesses. For purification, compounds 7 in some cases were acetylated to give the derivatives (1R,2S)- 8 . Racemic 6a was converted by oxidative ozonolysis at −78°C in methanolic NaOH solution to the corresponding methyl N-acetyl-β-hydroxy propanoate 9a. The configuration of (1R,2S)- 8a was confirmed by x-ray crystallographic analysis. Vinyl-substituted (1 R,2 S)-2-Amino Alcohols derived from ( R)-Cyanohydrins via Grignard Addition were ozonized to (1 R,2 S)-2-Amino-1,3-diols 7
