Abstract

AbstractNew functional dehydrophenylalanines 3 were prepared from β‐amino alcohols 1 in a two‐step reaction sequence. The synthesis involved chlorination of the starting amino alcohols 1 to afford the intermediate erythro β‐chloroamines 2. Treatment of the latter with an appropriate base led to a highly stereoselective elimination reaction, giving the corresponding (E)‐dehydrophenylalanine derivatives 3 in high yields. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
