✦ Synopsis
Boc-(R)-ot-phenylproline ethyl ester 1 was prepared in good yield starting from racemic phenylglycine. Condensation of phenylglycine ethyl ester with benzaldehyde furnished N-benzylidene phenylglycine ethyl ester which was allylated under phase transfer catalysis conditions. After acidic hydrolysis, the resulting ct-allylphenylglycine ethyl ester was enzymatically resolved using PLE. Hydroboration and oxidation of the double bond, Boc-protection and subsequent ring closure using the Mitsunobu reaction protocol gave rise to Boc-(R)-ot-phenylproline ethyl ester.
