A concise synthesis of (–)-chloramphenicol, based on the catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction between 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and benzhydryl isocyanoacetate, is reported. The highly enantio- and diastereoselective aldol reaction of isocyanoacetates catalysed by Ag2O and cinchona-derived amino phosphines applied to the synthesis of (–)- and (+)-chloramphenicol is described. The concise synthesis showcases the utility of this catalytic asymmetric methodology for the preparation of bioactive compounds possessing α-amino-β-hydroxy motifs.
