A diastereoselective synthesis of pseudopeptidic hydantoins by an Ugi/cyclization/Ugi sequence

A diastereoselective synthesis of helix-forming pseudopeptidic hydantoins by an Ugi 4CC/cyclization/reduction/Ugi 4CC sequence of reactions, giving mainly the l-adduct when benzoic acids were used, is described.
