Abstract


The preparation of ?-phenyl- and ?-(4-chlorophenyl)-?-butyrolactones ( )-3 and ( )-4 and their resolution to the corresponding (+)-(S)-3, (?)-(R)-3 and (+)-(S)-4, (?)-(R)-4 through formation, flash column chromatography separation and subsequent hydrolysis of diastereoisomeric 4-hydroxybutyramides (2?R,3S)-5, (2?R,3R)-5, (2?R,3S)-6 and (2?R,3R)-6 is described. The absolute configuration assignment of enantiopure 3 and 4 was supported by X-ray crystallographic structures of (2?R,3R)-5, (2?R,3S)-6 and (2?R,3R)-6
