Current routes to nitrogen-containing heteroarylalanines involve complex multistep synthesis and are often reliant on protection/deprotection steps and wasteful chromatographic purifications. In order to complement existing methodologies, a convenient telescopic strategy was developed for the synthesis of l-pyridylalanine analogues (12 examples) and other l-heteroarylalanines (5 examples) starting from the corresponding aldehydes. A phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) from Anabaena variabilis was used as the biocatalyst to give conversions ranging between 88 and 95%, isolated yields of 32-60%, and perfect enantiopurity (>99% ee) by employing an additional deracemization cascade where necessary.

Asymmetric synthesis of L-thienylalanines

, p. 527 - 536 (2007/10/03)
L-Thienylalanines were prepared via the hydantoin and azlactone routes with the key step consisting of the microbial transamination of 2-hydroxy-3-thienylacrylic with L-aspartic acid as amino donor.The transamination reaction was performed by a genetically engineered E. coli strain on scales up to 100 g of L-3-(2-thienyl)alanine 1a and is also applicable to the preparation of the isomeric amino acid 1b and some ring-substituted derivatives.
Studies on Cyclic Dipeptides, I: Aryl Modifications of cyclo-[Phe-His]
Noe,Weigand,Pirker
, p. 1081 - 1097 (2007/10/03)
Seven new cyclic dipeptides have been synthesized and tested for their applicability as tools to elucidate the mechanism of formation of mandelonitrile with (SS)-cyclo-[Phe-His] type catalysts. Conformational analyses based on 1H NMR spectra are presented for all prepared cyclic dipeptides.
