Abstract

The regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of 1,3-diamines using inexpensive starting materials is described. β-­Aminoketones are easily transformed diastereoselectively into syn, anti-, anti, anti-, or anti, syn-1,3-diamines using different methodologies. The configuration of the products was determined by NMR.

In one case the deprotection of compound 4 with R′ = Bn was not possible within a reasonable time: R1 = Ph, R2 = Me, R′ = Bn, NR4 2 = N(CH2)4O
