Cyclic tautomers of tryptophan: Enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of β-substituted and α,β-disubstituted derivatives of tryptophan
Bruncko,Crich
, p. 4239 - 4249 (2007/10/02)
A method is presented for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure erythro-β-alkylated derivatives of L-tryptophan from L-tryptophan itself via the intermediacy of cyclic tryptophan tautomers. Dehydrogenation of the cyclic tryptophan tautomer 2 to 3 is achi
Conformationally restricted amino acids: Diastereoselective substitution at the β-position of L-tryptophan
Bruncko, Milan,Crich, David
, p. 6251 - 6254 (2007/10/02)
Higher order cuprates add with extreme exo-facial selectivity to the chiral tetrahydropyrroloindole 3, itself prepared in enantiomerically pure form from L-tryptophan: treatment of the adducts with trifluoroacetic acid provides diastereo- and enantiomeric
