Enantiomerically pure orthogonally protected dimethyl 1-aminophosphonates (2R,5R,6R,1′R)- and (2R,5R,6R,1′S)-10, phosphonate analogs of 4-hydroxythreonine, were prepared employing the three-component reaction between trimethyl phosphite, (2R,5R,6R)-5,6-dimethoxy-5,6-dimethyl-1,4-dioxane-2-carbaldehyde (Ley’s aldehyde), and benzhydrylamine. Since both aminophosphonates 10 exist in a chloroform solution as single rotamers, the absolute configurations at C1′ were unequivocally established based on 1H and 13C NMR spectral data. Studies on stereochemistry of the addition of trialkyl phosphites showed that in chloroform in all cases the nucleophile preferentially attacks the si-face of the C˭N bond, while in alcohols the 1,2-stereoinduction is negligible, and sense of chirality of phenylethylamines is solely responsible for a π-facial discrimination in the 1,3-asymmetric inductions.
