Both enantiomers of protected 5‐hydroxynorvaline were prepared by hetero‐Diels‐Alder addition of ethyl 2‐nitrosoacrylate to readily available ( R )‐ and ( S )‐1‐phenylbutyl vinyl ether and a further three‐step manipulation. Attempted synthesis of (±)‐vigabatrin from protected (±)‐5‐hydroxynorvaline was unsuccessful.
