Abstract

A new method for the stereoselective synthesis of 1,3-amino alcohols based on the indium-mediated allylation of keto ester (R, S)-2 in aqueous media, resulting from shielding of one face by a remote substituent, was developed to be a useful method for acyclic stereocontrol in the absence of any obvious steric interaction.
