New approach to AI-77B: stereoselective construction of a potential precursor of the amino acid side chain

Abstract

A potential precursor of the amino acid side-chain derivative of antiulcerogenic antibiotic AI-77B is prepared in a highly stereoselective manner from the anti-aldol product 3, obtained from the reaction of the chiral benzaldehydechromium(0) complex 2.
