The stereoselective reduction of alpha -keto esters/alpha -keto amides, which have various chiral auxiliaries using SmI2, is examined. 2(S)-Methoxymethylpyrrolidine, 1,1,2(S)- and 1,1,2(R)-triphenylethanediol were found to be suitable chiral auxiliaries that produced the corresponding alpha -hydroxy ester and amide in good diastereoselectivity with satisfactory yields. Allylation, the Reformatsky-type reaction, and the ketyl-alkene coupling reaction with the 1,1,2(R)-triphenylethanediol and 2(S)-methoxymethylpyrrolidine, derivative of the alpha -keto ester/amide proceeded smoothly with high diastereoselectivity.
