Abstract

Abstract (1R, 2R)-1-Phenyl-1-alkyl/arylamino-2-(N-alkylamino) propane hydrochloride salts have been synthesized with high degree of enantiomeric purity from (1S, 2R)-(+)-1-phenyl-2- (N-alkylamino)-1-propanol through the corresponding chloro derivatives. This reaction sequence involves three inversions with overall inversion of configuration at C-1. Chirality, 2012.© 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
