25. The reaction was not complete after 3 weeks; about 50% of aminoester 4 was recycled. Only small amounts of allylchlorides 10 and 11 were formed. The second diastereoisomer could not be obtained in pure form (mixture with the von Braun type products).
26. Similar results were achieved by replacing the terminal benzyloxy group by a hydrogen. Chloroacetyl chloride only generated the corresponding azoninone in poor yields (about 10%) and a disappointing diastereoselectivity (anti:syn = 1.2:1). Most of the allylamine employed generated the von Braun type products 10 and 11.
