Masked and activated highly enantioenriched α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids with an additional adjacent stereocenter were formed by a tandem reaction involving five steps using racemic unprotected amino acid substrates. Key step is the 1,4-addition of in-situ generated azlactones to a broad number of enones. The products of this step-economic route can, e.g., be useful for a divergent and rapid access to biologically interesting unnatural glutamic acid derivatives. Copyright
Bispalladacycle-catalyzed bronsted acid/base-promoted asymmetric tandem azlactone formation-michael addition

Cooperative activation by a soft bimetallic catalyst, a hard Bronsted acid, and a hard Bronsted base has allowed the formation of highly enantioenriched, diastereomerically pure masked α-amino acids with adjacent quaternary and tertiary stereocenters in a single reaction starting from racemic N-benzoylated amino acids. The products can, for example, be used to prepare bicyclic dipeptides.
