The synthesis of α-methyl substituted amino acids using Ni(II) complexes of the Schiff base obtained from alanine and (S)-2-N-(N'-benzylpropyl)aminobenzaldehyde is described.This complex was alkylated with isopropyl bromide, gramine iodomethylate, and methyl acrylate (in a Michael reaction).From the resulting mixtures of products, diastereomerically pure complexes were obtained by crystallization or silica gel chromatography.Both (S)- and (R)-enantiomers of the optically active amino acids α-Me-Val and α-MeGlu were obtained after decomposing the diastereomerically pure complexes.

A general protocol for the preparation of 18F-labeled AAAs and α-methyl-AAAs applying alcohol-enhanced Cu-mediated radiofluorination of Bpin-substituted chiral complexes using Ni/Cu-BPX templates as double protecting groups is reported. The chiral auxiliaries are easily accessible from commercially available starting materials in a few synthetic steps. The versatility of the method was demonstrated by the high-yielding preparation of a series of [18F]F-AAAs and the successful implementation of the protocol into automated radiosynthesis modules.
