Cj. Moody et Jca. Hunt, ADDITION OF ALLYLMAGNESIUM BROMIDE TO ROPHY SOPHY ALDOXIMES - ASYMMETRIC-SYNTHESIS OF PROTECTED BETA-AMINO ACIDS/, Synlett, (7), 1998, pp. 733-734
A new asymmetric synthesis of protected beta-amino acids is described
in which the key step is the diastereoselective addition of allylmagne
sium bromide to O-(1-phenylbutyl) aldoximes.
