lpropionamides were prepared with high stereoselectivity by NaBH4 reduction of the corresponding 2-methyl-3-oxo esters or 2-methyl-3-oxo amides in the presence of a catalytic amount of manganese(II) chloride. On the other hand, reduction of these substrates with n-Bu4NBH4 provided threo-isomers selectively. erythro-Selective reduction of 2-methyl-3-oxo amides with NaBH3CN in 1N HCl-MeOH is also described
赤-3-羟基-2- methylpropionates或赤-3-羟基-2-甲基丙酰胺用高立体选择性加入NaBH制备4减少在相应的2-甲基-3-氧代酯或2-甲基-3-氧代酰胺的催化量的氯化锰(II)的存在。另一方面,用n -Bu 4 NBH 4还原这些底物选择性地提供了苏式异构体。还描述了在1N HCl-MeOH中用NaBH 3 CN对2-甲基-3-氧代酰胺的赤型选择性还原。
