The key step of this reaction sequence is the chemoselsctive methylenation of the amide carbonyl group of 8 with dimethyltitanocene 9 to 10. The transformation of the exocyclic enecarbamate double bond to the carboxylic acid group is best accomplished via hydroboration/oxidation to the alcohol 11a,b. Separation and oxidation of the dlastereomers 11a,b, to 148. and 14b, and hydrolysis furnishes the diastereomeric pipecolic acids 15a and 15b in enantiopure form.}, subject = {Chemie}, language = {en} }
