Application

2-Amino-3-methyl-1-butanol was used in the synthesis of 1-allyl-2-pyrroleimines. It was also used as chiral nucleophile in the total synthesis of benanomicin-pradimicin antibiotics. It was used as homochiral guest compound during synthesis of crown ethers containing two chiral subunits.

1-Allyl-2-pyrroleimines obtained from (S)-valinol and (S)-phenylglycinol underwent highly diastereoselective addition of allylmagnesium chloride, used in excess amounts, to give the corresponding secondary amines with concomitant allyl to (Z)-1-propenyl isomerization of the 1-pyrrole substituent. Transformation of the 2-amino alcohol moiety to

New N,P-ligands 4-6, derived from valinol and prolinol, respectively, have been developed for the asymmetric, copper(I)-catalysed conjugate addition of diethylzinc to unsaturated ketones; the tertiary amide group has been shown to effectively relay the chiral information from the ligand backbone

A general approach to the regio- and stereoselective total synthesis of the benanomicin-pradimicin antibiotics (BpAs) is described. Construction of the aglycon has been achieved by 1) the diastereoselective ring-opening of a biaryl lactone by using (R)-valinol as a chiral nucleophile
