Corrigendum to “Enantioselective alkylation and protonation of prochiral enolates in the asymmetric synthesis of β-amino acids” [Tetrahedron 59 (2003) 4223]

This paper describes work that corrects the synthetic procedures reported in the title paper for the preparation of novel chiral phenolic acids (S)-11, (S)-13, (S,S)-12 and (S,S)-14. Unlike the results provided in the article being reexamined, protonation of prochiral enolates 2-Li and 3-Li with chiral Brønsted acids 11-14 proceeded with negligible enantioselectivity.
