Abstract
An enantioselective and stereodivergent methodology for the synthesis of the four isomers of beta-hydroxy norvaline is presented starting fr om the common oxazolidin-2-one intermediate 1, via an iterative format ion of the oxazolidin-2-one ring to achieve the stereochemical control of the stereogenic centers. The flexibility of the present approach, for the synthesis of several threonine analogs, lies in the ready disp lacement of the sulfonate group in 2 with the Grignard reagents in the presence of CuI.
