Designing potent and subtype-selective ligands with therapeutic value requires knowledge about how endogenous ligands interact with their binding site. 4-Amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (GABOB) is an endogenous ligand found in the central nervous system in mammals. It is a metabolic product of

Rh(2)(4S-MEOX)(4) and ethereal solvent are the best catalytic system for the enantioselective intramolecular C-H insertion of N-(2-benzyloxyethyl)-N-(tert-butyl)diazoacetamide 2. The highest enantiomeric excess obtained was 91%. A new route for the asymmetric synthesis of gamma-amino-beta-hydroxybutyric acid (GABOB) has been developed.
