Enantiopure (1R,2S)-erythro- and (1S,2S)-threo-isomers of four new aryl-pyrrolidyl alcohols 5aH, 5aMe, 5bH and 5bMe have been obtained in five steps from (−)-(S)-proline and fully characterized. The oxidation of alcohol 8 into aldehyde 9 was the most difficult step and racemization occurs during Swern oxidation but this difficulty can be overcome by using SO3/pyridine as oxidant. Diastereomer I of the protected amino alcohol 10a crystallized and was shown to be the (1R,2S)-erythro-isomer (e-10a-I) using X-ray crystallography. Therefore the (1R,2S)-erythro structure was assigned to all compounds obtained from e-10a-I, and, as a consequence, the (1S,2S)-threo structure was assigned to diastereomers II. |
