Starting from a suitably functionalized aziridine, a highly efficient stereoselective synthesis of (1R,2R)-phenyl-2-decanoyl-amino-3-morpholinopropan- 1-ol (d-threo-PDMP) is described. The approach, based on the ring expansion of the aziridine ring to oxa

(Chemical Equation Presented) Regio- and stereo-controlled opening of 2,3-epoxy amines and 2,3-aziridine amines by the commercially available MgBr2 is described. As reported, this new method could represent a general and useful approach for the preparation of promising intermediates. Moreover, in particular cases, the reaction evolves toward an interesting oxazolidin-2-one structure.

The synthesis of enantiomerically pure (1S,2S)-1-phenyl-2- decanoylamino-3-N-morpholino-1-propanol (L-threo-PDMP) (1a) from L-serine, and the enantiomer (LR,2R)-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (D-threo-PDMP] (1b) from D-serine is reported. Reductive alkylation of the fully protected O'Donnell's Schiff base (3b) derived from D-serine provided the β-amino alcohol 5b in high yield and excellent selectivity, which yielded optically pure 1b in high yield after six steps. Three other D- threo-PDMP analogues with various amine groups have been synthesized using the same methodology, including the more potent pyrrolidine compound D- threo-PDPP (1e). A key feature of the synthesis is the isolation of tosylate (8b), which allows for the divergent synthesis of many analogues from a common advanced intermediate. The synthesis is amenable to large-scale production of D-threo-PDMP, L-threo-PDMP, and similar compounds.
