A practical two-stage one-pot synthesis of N-substituted β-amino alcohols using aldehydes and isocyanides as starting materials has been developed. This method features mild reaction conditions, broad scope, and general tolerance of functional groups. Based on a less common central carbon-carbon bond disconnection, this protocol complements traditional approaches that involve amines and various carbon electrophiles (epoxides, α-halo ketones, β-halohydrins). Medicinally relevant products can be prepared in a concise and efficient way from simple building blocks, as demonstrated in the synthesis of the antiasthma drug salbutamol. Upgrading the synthesis to an enantioselective variant is also feasible.

Catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aromatic alkyl ketones has been investigated using [Ru(p-cymene)Cl2]2 and new derivatives of β-amino alcohols synthesized from (S)-(-)-lactic acid and mandelic acid as ligands. Chiral secondary alcohols were obtained with good to excellent conversion (60-90%) and moderate to good enantioselectivities (40-86%).
The Preparation and Absolute Configuration of the Optically Active Forms of the Diastereoisomers of 2-(1-Phenylethyl)amino-1-phenylethanol and Their Use as Chiral Auxiliaries in the Asymmetric Reduction of Acetophenone with Modified Lithium Aluminium Hydrides

(1S,2S)-(-)-2-(1-Phenylethyl)amino-1-phenylethanol (4b) (α-form) and the (1S,2R)-(+)-diastereoisomer (4f) (β-form) were prepared by lithium aluminium hydride reduction of the optically active amides derived from the appropriate mandelic acids and 1-phenylethylamines.The preparative methods give the absolute stereochemistry.The aminoethanols (4) were used along with the lower alcohols to prepare chirally modified lithium aluminium hydrides which were in turn used to reduce acetophenone.The optical yields varied, giving at best, under low temperature conditions and use of a 25 percent optical yield.
