“…The typical chiral starting materials involve alanine,, , , , serine, Garner aldehyde, carbohydrates and glycidol . Asymmetric synthesis utilizes Sharpless epoxidation,, , Sharpless dihydroxylation, Henry reaction, azidirination, hydrazination via “enamine catalysis” and anti ‐aminohydroxylation , . Some of those syntheses afford only one stereoisomer of target 2‐aminoalkan‐2‐ol, but several exceptions can be found , , , .…”
