Abstract
A chiral NiII complex of a Schiff base derived from β-alanine and (S)-2-N(N‘-benzylprolyl)aminobenzophenone (BBP) undergoes an NaH-promoted reaction with benzaldehyde to produce a mixture of two diastereoisomeric complexes which, after chromatographic separation on SiO2 and decomposition with acid, give optically pure (2S,3R)- and (2S,3S)-2-aminomethyl-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acids.
