摘要

Esterification of racemic 4-nitro-3-(4-chlorophenyl) butanoic acid with (R)-or (S)-N- phenylpantolactam as the chiral auxiliary allowed us to obtain the (3R, 3′ R)-or (3S, 3′ S)- nitro esters with> 98: 2 dr after column chromatography. Hydrolysis of the resulting diastereopure nitro esters gave the corresponding enantiopure nitro acids, which were readily converted in high yields into either (R)-or (S)-baclofen hydrochloride.
