Enantiomerically pure syn-2-amino alcohols 6 are prepared by addition of diethylzinc to chiral alpha-(dibenzylamino) aldehydes 4. The addition is highly stereoselective, leading to syn-2-(dibenzylamino) alcohols 5 with excellent diastereomeric excesses (76-98%). Debenzylation of 5 by hydrogenolysis on Pearlman's catalyst yields quantitatively the amino alcohols 6.
