Enantioselective syntheses of <i>tert</i>-butyl ((<i>S</i>)-2-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1-((<i>S</i>)-oxiran-2-yl)ethyl)carbamate and ((<i>S</i>)-2-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1-((<i>R</i>)-oxiran-2-yl)ethyl)carbamate are described. We utilized asymmetric <i>syn</i>- and <i>anti</i>-aldol reactions to set both stereogenic centers. We investigated ester-derived Ti-enolate aldol reactions as well as Evans' diastereoselective <i>syn</i>-aldol reaction for these syntheses. We have converted optically active ((< ...[more]
