Suitable protected derivatives of trihydroxynorleucines-[(2S,4S,5S)- and (2R,4S,5S)-2-amino-4,5,6-trihydroxyhexanoic acid,] of all isomeric dihydroxynorvalines [2-amino-4,5-dihydroxypentanoic acids), of all isomeric 2-amino-6,7-dihydroxyheptanoic acids and of (2S)-2-amino-6-hydroxymethyl-7-hydroxyheptanoic acid are synthesized via the corresponding α,β-didehydro compounds, which are hydrogenated with the optically active homogeneous catalyst [Rh(COD)(DIPAMP)]+ BF- 4.
