Protected forms of 3-amino-3-deoxy-D-erythrose 2 and of 2-amino-2-deoxy-L-erythrose 11 have been enantiospecifically prepared starting from the diethyl L-tartrate derived aziridine 1 through a Pummerer rearrangement. Compound 2 was shown to be a convenient chiral building block for the synthesis of the 4-[2-(2- benzyloxycarbonylazetidin-1-yl)-1-benzyloxyethyl]-3-tert-butoxycarbonyl -2, 2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidine 3, a precursor for mugineic acid.
