Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING L-ERYTHRO-(1R,2S)-2-AMINO-1-PHENYLPROPAN-1-OL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2000/039071
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An efficient process for stereoselectively producing L-erythro-(1R,2S)-2-amino-1-phenylpropan-1-ol from L-(R)-phenylacetylcarbinol, which comprises reductively aminating L-(R)-phenylacetylcarbinol with a primary aralkylamine under catalytic reduction conditions and successively subjecting the resultant L-erythro-(1R,2S)-2-(N-aralkylamino)-1-phenylpropan-1-ol to catalytic reduction to remove the N-aralkyl group in a manner as in hydrogenolysis.
