The enantiomerically pure pyrrolidine diester 4 i s a useful building block for the synthesis of chiral hydroporphyrin compounds. Treatment of optically active aromatic amines with bislactone 5 gave pairs of N ‐alkylated lactam‐lactone diastereomers 6 and 8 . These diastereomers were separated by MPL chromatography and in the case of 8 they could be debenzylated to yield the enantiomerically pure lactam‐lactone 7 and its enantiomer. The (–)‐lactam‐lactone enantiomer 7 was further transformed into building block 4 .(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)
