Nonenzymatic kinetic resolution of β-amino alcohols: chiral BINAP mediated SN2 displacement of hydroxy groups by halogens through formation of an aziridinium ion intermediate

Abstract

A series of optically active cyclic trans-β-amino alcohols were obtained (up to 97% ee) from nonenzymatic kinetic resolution of corresponding racemic amino alcohols using commercially available (S)-BINAP and NCS by halogenation of hydroxy groups through formation of a meso-aziridinium ion intermediate.
