The present invention provides methods of efficiently producing various optically active aromatic amino acid derivatives by reacting, using an additive, a specific ester compound with an aromatic halide and zinc in the presence of a catalyst. The present invention also provides amino acid derivatives that can be produced by the methods.

Pd-catalyzed β-C-H functionalizations of carboxylic acid derivatives using an auxiliary as a directing group have been extensively explored in the past decade. In comparison to the most widely used auxiliaries in asymmetric synthesis, the simplicity and practicality of the auxiliaries developed for C-H activation remains to be improved. We previously developed a simple N-methoxyamide auxiliary to direct β-C-H activation, albeit this system was not compatible with carboxylic acids containing α-hydrogen atoms. Herein we report the development of a pyridine-type ligand that overcomes this limitation of the N-methoxyamide auxiliary, leading to a significant improvement of β-arylation of carboxylic acid derivatives, especially α-amino acids. The arylation using this practical auxiliary is applied to the gram-scale syntheses of unnatural amino acids, bioactive molecules, and chiral bis(oxazoline) ligands.

Nuclear hormone receptor (NR) signaling, currently a therapeutic target in multiple diseases, involves an ordered series of protein interactions to regulate transcription in response to changing hormone levels. Later steps in the process of ligand-dependent signaling are driven by a highly conserved interaction between the NRs and the steroid receptor coactivators (SRCs) that is effected by a conserved interaction motif (L1XXL2L3), known as an NR box. Using computational design and combinatorial chemistry, we have produced novel ∞-helical proteomimetics of the second NR box of SRC2 that exploit structural differences between human estrogen receptor ∞ (hER∞), human estrogen receptor β (hERβ), and human thyroid hormone receptor β (hTRβ). The resulting library sequentially replaced each leucine with non-natural side chains. Screening this library using a quantitative competition assay revealed compounds that selectively inhibit the interaction of SRC2-2 with each individual NR in preference to its interaction with the other NR. This approach generated highly selective compounds from one that had no specificity for a particular family member. These compounds represent the first family-member-selective competitive inhibitors of the protein interactions of transcription factors. Copyright
