Aminobenzaldehydes bearing a pendant 3,5-dinitrophenyl group react thermally with N-substituted α-amino acids to form unprecedented benzoazepine-fused isoindolines. The reaction proceeds via a dearomatization/rearomatization sequence involving an intramolecular (3 + 2)-cycloaddition between the in situ formed azomethine ylide and the dinitroarene. Various glycine derivatives are tolerated as well as branched substrates based on cyclic, α-mono-, and α,α-disubstituted amino acids, giving single diastereomers in many cases. The method is scalable and gives products with a nitro group ready for further manipulation.

An important method for the N-tert-butoxycarbonyl protection of the amino functionality of α-alkylated prolines and other sterically hindered α,α-disubstituted amino acids has been developed in which the lipophilic base tetramethylammonium hydroxide is used to solubilize the otherwise insoluble zwitterionic amino acid in acetonitrile, thereby obviating the need for an aqueous medium.
