The reaction of (S)-3-4'-isopropyl-1',3'-oxazolidino-1-phenylpropan-1-ones (1a, 1b) with 4 mol eq of various organotitanium triisopropoxides in ether at room temperature for 18-20 h gave 1-alkyl(or aryl)-3-N-alkyl(or arylmethyl)-N-1'-isopropyl-2'-hydroxyethylamino-1-phenylpropan-1-ols (2a-h) in good yields.This 1,5-asymmetric induction proceeded with extremly diastereoselectivity.The absolute configurations of 2d and 3d were determined by X-ray analysis.Keywords-absolute configuration; 1,5-asymmetric induction; chiral 1,3-oxazolidine; chiral phenylpropan-1-ol; chiral phenylpropan-1-one; diastereoselective; Grignard reagent; organolithium; organotitanium triisopropoxide; X-ray analysis
