Theb iocatalytic synthesis of chiral amines has become av aluable addition to the chemists toolbox. However, the efficient asymmetric synthesis of functionalised amines bearing more than one stereocentre,s uch as 1,3-aminoa lcohols, remains challenging. By employing ak eto reductase (KRED) and two enantiocomplementary amine transaminases (ATA), we developed ab iocatalytic route towards all four diastereomers of 4-amino-1-phenylpentane-2-ol as ar epresentative molecule bearing the 1,3amino alcohol functionality.S tarting from ar acemic hydroxy ketone,akinetic resolution using an (S)-selective KRED provided optically active hydroxy ketone( 86% ee)a nd the corresponding diketone.Furthert ransamination of the hydroxy ketone was performed by either an (R)-or an (S)-selective ATA, yieldingt he (2R,4R)-and (2R,4S)-1,3-amino alcohol diastereomers. Ther emaining two diastereomers were accessible in twos ubsequent asymmetric steps: the diketonew as reducedr egio-ande nantioselectively by the same KRED, which yielded the (S)-configuredh ydroxy ketone.E ventually, the subsequent transamination of the crude product with (R)-and (S)-selective ATAs yielded the remaining (2S,4R)and (2S,4S)-diastereomers,respectively.
