Abstract

A quick route to enantiomerically pure unnatural aryl glycinols and aryl glycines has been established based on an asymmetric azidation reaction using a chiral benzosultam auxiliary. The synthesis of aryl glycinols involves three steps starting from arylacetic acids, and the chiral auxiliary can be readily recovered.
