A Lewis-acid catalyzed anti-aldol reaction of aldehyde 4 afforded diol 6a (95percent de).Aminolysis of the corresponding β-lactone provided erythro-dihydroxyethylene dipeptide isostere 2 while the lactone-protected hydroxyethylene dipeptide isostere 3 was obtained through selective deoxygenation and acidic deprotection. Key words: hydroxyethylene isostere; anti-aldol; aspartic proteinase; renin inhibitor; facial selective
