The transamination of α-keto acids with 2-phenylglycine is an effective methodology for directly synthesizing unprotected α-amino acids. However, the synthesis of 2-arylglycines by transamination is problematic because the corresponding products, 2-arylglycines, transaminate the starting arylglyoxylic acids. Herein, we demonstrate the use of commercially available l-2-(2-chlorophenyl)glycine as the nitrogen source in the transamination of arylglyoxylic acids, producing the corresponding 2-arylglycines without interference from the undesired self-transamination process.

A convenient scaleable process for the preparation of substituted phenylglycines 2 by a modified Strecker reaction is described. Bisulfite- mediated addition of benzylamine and cyanide anion to substituted benzaldehydes 3 gave the aminonitriles 4 which were hydrolysed in two steps to the N-protected amino acid 1. Debenzylation using catalytic transfer hydrogenation gave the title compounds in good yield.
