Enantioselective and Diastereoselective Formation ofsyn-3-Hydroxy-4-amino Acids (syn-Statines) via Tetramic Acids

Abstract
Enantiomerically pure pyrrolidine-2,4-diones (tetramic acids) which can be diastereoselectively hydrogenated to syn-statines (4-amino-3-hydroxy-6-methylheptanoic acids) have been prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of 4-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-3-oxocarboxylic acid esters.
