An efficient combinatorial access to beta-hydroxyamines suitable for a
utomation is achieved by the mild oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes b
y polymer supported perruthenate (PSP), the subsequent clean olefinati
on of the obtained aldehydes by polymer supported Wittig reagents foll
owed by the epoxidation of the olefins by dimethyldioxirane (DMDO), an
