Abstract
Abstract The title amino acids, (2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-5-methyl-hexanoic acid (AHMHA) and (2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid (AHPBA), are stereoselectively prepared from (4R,5R)-5-allyl-4-methoxy-2-oxazolidinone which is readily accessible from the previously reported chiral synthon, (4R,5R)-5-phenylseleno-4-methoxy-2-oxazolidinone.
