Abstract
[GRAPHICS] The beta-amino alcohol 4 beta-morpholinocaran-3 alpha-ol is prepared by add ition of morpholine to alpha-3,4-epoxycarane utilizing anhydrous magnesium bromide as Lewis acid promoter. The enantiopure amino alcohol is uniquely e ffective as a chiral moderator for the addition of lithium cyclopropylacety lide to an unprotected N-acylketimine. This reaction provides an efficient route to the second generation NNRTI drug candidate DPC 963.
