✦ Synopsis


Enantioselective Synthesis of β-Substituted Butyric Acid Derivatives via Orthoester Claisen Rearrangement of Enzymatically Resolved Allylic Alcohols: Application to the Synthesis of (R)-(-)-Baclofen.

-A three step synthesis of the GABA B receptor agonist (-)-baclofen is presented. Key step in this synthesis is the orthoester Claisen rearrangement of enantiomerically pure allylic alcohol ((S)-(-)-I).
