Abstract: | We have studied the thiolysis of (2R,1′S)- or (2S,1′S)-2-(1-aminoalkyl)epoxides 1 or 2 in the presence of BF3·OEt2. The ring opening took place at C-3 with complete regioselectivity, affording the corresponding enantiopure (2R,3S)- or (2S,3S)-3-amino-1-(alkylthio)alkan-2-ols 3 or 4 in good or high yield. The structures of compounds 3 and 4 have been proposed based on HMBC NMR experiments. |
