Synthesis of N-alkoxycarbonyl-3-substituted tetramic acids and functionalized enols via C-acylation reactions of active methylene compounds with N-hydroxysuccinimide esters of N-alkoxycarbonyl-α-amino acids

The N-hydroxysuccinimide esters of N-alkoxycarbonyl-α-amino acids react with active methylene compounds (malonic and acyl acetic esters), under basic conditions, to produce N-alkoxycarbonyl-3-substituted tetramic acids 7-17; in the case of the N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of L-alanine, the corresponding optically active tetramic acids 15 and 16 are obtained. In addition, the C-acylation reactions of cyanoacetic esters furnishes the functionalized enols 18-23 in very good yields. Spectral data and physical characteristics for all compounds are reported.

Novel Modifications of Peptides: Simple Syntheses of Difunctionalized Enamines, Enol Ethers, and Thioenol Ethers from Carboxylic Acids via Acylimidazole and Enol Phosphate Intermediates

The condensation of carboxylic acids 5 (N-protected amino acids or dipeptides) and active methylene compounds to give difunctionalized enols 6 is accomplished by the use of 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole as an activating reagent.Enamines 7a, enol ethers 7b, and thioenol ethers 7c are obtained directly from the corresponding nucleophiles and the intermediates formed from enols 6 by the action of phenyl phosphorodichloridate.The integrity of peptide chiral centers is maintained during these transformations.
