Treatment of α-amino aldehyde 2, which was prepared through Moffatt oxidation of the corresponding β-amino alcohol 5, with aqueous sodium bisulfite allowed clean conversion to a water-soluble bisulfite adduct 6 [>99% conversion, 89% yield (two steps)]. The aqueous solution of 6 was treated with benzylamine followed by easy-handling NaCN to effect the Strecker reaction to afford α-amino nitrile 3 with high diastereoselectivity and in high yield (syn/anti = 11:1, 95% assay yield). Both the compounds syn-3 and anti-3 were converted to a key intermediate 4 for (+)-biotin through S,N-carbonyl migration in high yields.

The Strecker reaction of (2R,4R)-2-phenyl-3-phenoxycarbonylthiazolidine-4- carbaldehyde (4b), which was readily prepared from L-cysteine, with benzylamine and trimethylsilyl cyanide provided α-amino nitrile 5b stereoselectively (syn-anti, 2:1), Amidation of 5b and subsequent cyclization gave bicyclic compound 6, which, upon reduction with zinc dust, hydrolysis and subsequent cyclization, furnished thiolactone 2, a key intermediate for (+)-biotin (1).
