A. Bongini et al., EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF THE 4 DIASTEREOMERS OF PHOSPHOTHREONINE FROM LACTALDEHYDE, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 7(5), 1996, pp. 1467-1476
The four stereoisomers of phosphothreonine are obtained in high diaste
reomeric purity based on the stereoselective addition of trimethylsily
ldiethylphosphite (TMSDEP) to scalemic N-trimethylsilyl-lacticimine an
d addition of TMSDEP to lactaldehyde followed by Mitsunobu inversion o
f the corresponding alpha-hydroxy-beta-silyloxy phosphonate. Copyright
