Abstract
Nonracemic beta -blockers, viz., (S)-propranolol and (S)-timolol, were prep ared from (S)-glycidol in three steps consisting in the reaction with SOCl2 followed by the reaction of the resulting (4S)-4-chloromethyl-2-oxo-1,3,2- dioxathiolanes with the corresponding phenol and the final cleavage of (4R) -aryloxymethyl sulfites under the action of amines in DMF.
