Homochiral α‐(dibenzylamino) aldehydes, prepared from the corresponding α‐amino acids, react with ethynylmagnesium bromide in THF/Et 2 O at 0 °C to afford, in good yields and dr , propargylic 1,2‐amino alcohols; anti diastereomers were always formed as the major products in this reaction. These compounds are versatile intermediates in the synthesis of meso ‐ and enantiopure 1,6‐diamino‐2,5‐diols with C 2 symmetry. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
