✦ Synopsis


Using a new aldol approach, starting directly from the pyruvate enolate 7 and reacting it chelate controlled with the chiral a-aminoaldehyde s, the aldol adduct 2 is obtained diastereoselectively and is converted subsequently by 1,3-induced asymmetric hydrogenation into the chiral title compound 11. This novel lactone is further used for the synthesis of potent renin inhibitors.
