(3R,4R)-3-Amino-4-hydroxyhexahydroazepine (2), the optically active constituent of the antifungal antibiotic ophicordin (1), was prepared in a multistep synthesis starting from D-serine.The absolute configuration was unambigously assigned by a comparison of the synthesized stereoisomer 2 with its racemate and the chiral moiety of the antibiotic ophiocordin by enantioselective gas chromatography. Key Words: 3-Amino-4-hydroxyhexahydroazepine / Cordyceps ophioglossoides / Antifungals / Antibiotics / Ophiocordin
