- Titanium-mediated diastereoselective formation of (E)- or (Z)-2-substituted 1-vinylcyclopropanols: Scope and limitation, applications
-
Titanium-mediated cyclopropanation of α,β-unsaturated esters failed to provide 1-vinylcyclopropanol derivatives in useful yields, but (E)-2-substituted-1-vinylcyclopropanols were formed diastereoselectively from O-protected β-oxo- and β-halo esters, with the allylic double bond being created subsequently (Knoevenagel condensation or dehydrohalogenation). Titanium-mediated cyclopropanation of homoallyl alk-2-enoates, on the other hand, directly provided the corresponding Z diastereomers. Palladium(0)-catalysed azidation of their sulfonic esters (tosylate, mesylate), azide reduction, and subsequent double bond cleavage afforded (E)- or (Z)-2-alkyl-2,3-methanoamino acids, although improvements are required to perform the total asymmetric syntheses of molecules with three membered-rings by these methods.

- A convenient approach to substituted 1-(1-alkenyl)cyclopropanols: A new preparation of 2,3-methanoamino acids
-
The diastereoselective titanium(IV)-mediated cyclopropanation of ethyl 3,3-diethoxypropionate by Grignard reagents, followed by modified Knoevenagel condensation with malonic acid under microwave irradiation, allow the preparation of (E)-1-(1-alkenyl)cyclopropanol derivatives, suitable precursors of πn-1,1-dimethyleneallylmetal species. The azidation of such complexes, followed by a reduction-oxidation sequence led to pure (E)-2,3-methanoamino acids. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

- Stereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized cyclopropanes. Application to the asymmetric synthesis of (1S,2S)-2,3-methanoamino acids
-
One-pot palladium(0)-catalyzed alkylation and S(N') cyclization of 1,4- dichlorobut-2-ene 1 by the anion of α-substituted carbonitriles 2a-d can provide highly functionalized cyclopropanes (E)-4a-d, diastereoselectivity, (de 88-100%). Several attempts to achieve the asymmetric synthesis of the 1- amino-2-ethenylcyclopropanecarbonitrile (E)-9, by means of this new procedure, i.e., using chiral palladium ligands, chiral aminoacetonitriles (- )- and (+)-12 (from 1-hydroxypinanone) or chiral allyl chlorides (4S)-20b-d and (4R)-20e (from (2S) ethyl lactate) have pointed up the reversibility of the palladium-catalyzed cyclization step, responsible for the low enantioselectivity observed (ee ≤ 32%) and for the formation of byproducts, i.e., azepine derivatives 8a,b arising from subsequent aza Cope ring expansion. Molecular mechanics calculations using a modified MM2 type force field adapted to the π-allyl palladium complexes have explained these results. However, When performed under the Mitsunobu reaction conditions (DEAD, PMe3), therefore, in the absence of palladium catalyst, the S(N'), cyclization occurred also diastereoselectively (de > 88%) and provided the enantiomerically enriched 1-amino-2-propenylcyclopropanecarbonitrile (E)-22 (ee > 83%) suitable precursor of (1S,2S)-2,3-methanoamino acids.

-
The compound (1R,2S)-2-methyl-1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid (MeACC) has been synthesized in racemic and optically active forms.It has been studied as a substrate and inhibitor for ethylene biosynthesis in mung bean hypocotyls.Both KI and Km for MeACC are the same and identical with Km for ACC, strongly implying that they compete for the same site.MeACC is converted to propene by mung bean hypocotyls.
