Abstract
A new route for the synthesis of aralkyl primary amines is reported, where the commercially available (+) or (−) norephedrine is condensed with aralkyl ketones followed by hydrogenation of the Schiff base using platinum catalyst. The chiral β-aminoalcohols thus obtained were oxidized by periodate to yield the aralkyl primary amines in 54–66% enantiomeric excess.
