title: Diastereoselective aldol additions to alpha-amino-beta-silyloxy aldehydes. Divergent synthesis of aminodiols.
abstract: A divergent protocol for substrate-controlled diastereoselective synthesis of aminodiols has been developed using nucleophilic Mukaiyama aldol additions to alpha-amino-beta-silyloxy aldehydes. The merged stereochemical impact on the diastereoselectivity of the polar alpha- and beta-substituents is highlighted. [reaction: see text]
