✦ Synopsis
The degree of stereoconvergence in the synthesis of I~-hydroxyarylalanine derivatives from the corresponding ~-bromoarylalanine derivatives is governed by the electronic nature of the aryl substituents, and controlled by facially selective stabilisation of the benzylic cation through the neighbouring ester moiety. Introduction of electron donating aryl substituents results in a decrease in selectivity, whereas electron withdrawing substituents induce an increase in selectivity for the
