- Primordial Amino Acids by Reductive Amination of α-Oxo Acids in Conjunction with the Oxidative Formation of Pyrite
-
The theory of an autotrophic origin of life postulates a primordial formation of amino acids by a mild and specific chemical energy source, namely by the reductive amination of α-oxo acids in conjunction with the oxidative formation of pyrite.Here we show experimental proof for this reaction, which involves carbon dioxide as catalyst.

- Remarkable Nucleophilic Activity of N-Acetamido Group. Synthesis of Proline and Lysine for Biosynthetic Purposes
-
DL-Proline 7 was prepared from acroleine 1 and diethyl N-acetylaminomalonate 2 in 22percent overall yield.The key step was an intramolecular substitution of tosyloxy group in 4b by N-acetylamino group.The tosylate 4b was also an intermediate in synthesis of (6-13C) lysine.Pronounced differences in incorporation of (6-13C) and lysine to lupanine 12 were observed.

- Chemical Conversion of Cyclic α-Amino Acids to α-Aminodicarboxylic Acids by Improved Ruthenium Tetroxide Oxidation
-
The ruthenium tetroxide (RuO4) oxidation of N-acylated L-proline esters, prepared from L-proline, was carried out under two-phase conditions to afford good yields of the corresponding lactams with no appreciable racemization, and the products were hydrolyzed in aqueous hydrochloric acid to L-glutamic acid.Similar transformation starting with racemic 2-piperidinecaboxylic acid and 2-azetidinecarboxylic acid gave 2-aminoadipic acid and aspartic acid, respectively.A novel chemical converion of cyclic α-amino acids into α-aminodicarboxylic acids has been accomplished.A new solvent system, ethyl acetate-water, was developed for this two-phase oxidation.It was found to be very useful in reducing the necessary reaction time.Keywords --- oxidation; regioselectivity; lactam synthesis; ruthenium tetroxide; cyclic α-amino acid; α-aminodicarboxylic acid; L-proline; L-glutamic acid; two-phase method; ethyl acetate-water system
