Highly diastereoselective N-nitrosation of chiral (E)-2-(benzylidene-amino)ethanols with nitric oxide
摘要:
N-Nitrosation of (E)-(S)-2-(benzylidene-amino)ethanols 2 with nitric oxide occurred highly diastereoselectively, to give the (2S,4S)-diastereomer dominant N-nitroso-(2S,4S)-1,3-oxazolidines in good yield. Intermediate 2 was prepared from the reaction of benzaldehyde 1 with (S)-2-aminoethanol. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
