Abstract
Abstract Efficient enantioselective synthesis of (R)- and (S)-enantiomers of 2-(tert-butylamino)-1-(p-methoxyphenyl)-ethanol has been achieved in high enantiomeric excess by using asymmetric sulfoxide as a chiral auxiliary. The present synthetic approach was further extended to the asymmetric synthesis of (R)-salbutamol.
