Starting from the appropriate azides bearing the (S)-1-phenylethylamine and the l-alanine benzylester as chiral pendants, a facile and effective synthetic route to the title compounds in their enantiopure form was developed with excellent product yields obtained. Basic hydrolysis of the ester group of title compounds 3a–c gave the corresponding, readily functionalisable carboxylic acids. Catalytic reduction of 2-benzyl derivatives 3c and 3f gave 4-functionalised 1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-1,4-benzodiazepin-3-ones in enantiopure forms.
