(Chemical Equation Presented) A catalytic asymmetric amination with a lanthanum/amide complex was significantly improved. The use of lanthanum nitrate hydrate in place of lanthanum triisopropoxide made the process reproducible, scalable, and cost-effective. The development of a ternary catalytic system of La/ligand/amine was a key to high ee and catalytic turnover. A 100 g scale reaction was performed to showcase a practical synthesis of a key intermediate for AS-3201, a highly potent aldose reductase inhibitor.

We have found that a boronic acid catalyzed amidation of an N -hydroxy amino acid methyl ester with amino acid tert -butyl esters gave N -hydroxy dipeptide derivatives in good yields without any racemization. The protecting groups on the nitrogen atom could be easily removed by heterogeneous hydrogenation conditions.

We report herein a Pd(II)/bis-sulfoxide-catalyzed intramolecular allylic C-H acetoxylation of aryl allyl ether, amine, and amino acids with the retention of a labile allyl moiety. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds through a distinct double-bond isomerization from the allylic to the vinylic position followed by intramolecular carboxypalladation and the β-hydride elimination pathway. For the first time, C-H oxidation of N-allyl-protected amino acids to furnish five-membered heterocycles through 1,3-syn-addition is established with excellent diastereoselectivity.

The increasing emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens is one of the biggest threats to human health and food security. The discovery of new antibacterials, and in particular the finding of new scaffolds, is an imperative goal to stay ahead of the evolution of antibiotic resistance. Herein we report the synthesis of a 3-decyltetramic acid analogue of the ureido dipeptide natural antibiotic leopolic acid A. The key step in the synthetic strategy is an intramolecular Lacey-Dieckmann cyclization reaction of a linear precursor to obtain the desired 3-alkyl-substituted tetramic acid core. The synthesized analogue is more effective than the parent leopolic acid A against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus pseudintermedius) and Gram-negative (E. coli) bacteria (MIC 8 μg/mL and 64 μg/mL, respectively). Interestingly, the compound shows a significant activity against Staphylococcus pseudintermedius strains expressing a multidrug-resistant phenotype (average MIC 32 μg/mL on 30 strains tested). These results suggest that this molecule can be considered a promising starting point for the development of a novel class of antibacterial agents active also against resistant strains.
