A synthesis of β-amino alcs. is described starting from racemic or enantiomerically pure α-hydroxynitriles which were O-protected using enantiomerically pure acetal type protective groups. Reduction with lithium aluminum hydride yielded O-protected β-amino alcs. Whenever diastereomeric O-protected cyanohydrins could not be separated, the mixture was reduced and the resulting O-protected amino alcs. were separated Removal of the protective group using hydrogen chloride and methanol yielded enantiomerically pure β-amino alcs. or their corresponding hydrochlorides. For example, the chiral synthesis of (R)-1-amino-3-(1-naphthalenyloxy)-2-propanol and (S)-1-amino-3-(1-naphthalenyloxy)-2-propanol was accomplished via resolution of (±)-2-hydroxy-3-(1-naphthalenyloxy)propanenitrile.
