Abstract
Treatment of the readily available (R)-(-) enantiomer of 2-aminobutan- 1-ol 1 with sodium hydride followed by benzyl chloride afforded the ($ ) under bar O-benzyl base (R)-(-)-2. The latter was successfully used for the resolution of racemic alpha-methylsuccinic and alpha-bromosucc inic acids, as well as of the racemic alpha-benzylhemisuccinic esters 8 and 9 respectively.
