Abstract

Abstract Image

Starting from optically active 3,3-difluorolactaldehyde, an alkenyl or aryl boronic acid, and an amine, a one-step three-component methodology was developed for the stereoselective preparation of anti-α-(difluoromethyl)-β-amino alcohols. β-Furyl-substituted anti-α-(difluoromethyl)-β-amino alcohol was further elaborated to form (2S,3R)-difluorothreonine in high yield and ee.
