A straightforward synthesis of enantiomerically pure (4R,5S)-5-oxazolidinecarboxylic acid, 2-oxo-4-[(t-butyldimethyl-silyloxy)methyl]-, benzyl ester and of (4S,5S)-4-oxazolidinecarboxylic acid, 2-oxo-5-[(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)methyl]-, benzyl ester was envisaged starting from readily available L-aspartic acid. The key step is the diastereoselective addition of iodine with the introduction of a new stereogenic centre.
