(Chemical Equation Presented) An asymmetric synthesis of (S)-γ-fluoroleucine ethyl ester 1 is described. The key transformation involves a lipase-catalyzed dynamic ring-opening of 2-(3-butenyl)azlactone 7b with EtOH to give amide ester (S)-6b in 84% enant

The reaction of (2S)-N-benzoyl-2-tert-butyl-4-methylene-1,3-oxazolidin-5-one (9) with isopropylidenetriphenylphosphorane at room temperature gives the corresponding cis and trans spirocyclopropane derivatives 10 in ca. 1:1 ratio.After separation of both diastereomers, by recrystallization and flasch chromatography, and further acid hydrolysis, enantiomerically pure (R)- and (S)-2,3-methanovaline 11 are obtained.

The synthesis of 2>- and 6>-locust adipokinetic hormones by the catalytic tritiation of 2>-(ΔLeu2-) and 6>-(ΔPro6-) precursors is described.The products had specific radioactivities of 115 and 12.1 Ci mmol-1 respectively.The distribution of isotope in the former was investigated by 3H n.m.r. spectroscopy which confirmed the conclusions from 2H n.m.r. spectroscopy of catalytically deuterated N-acetyl-4,5-dehydroleucine.It was concluded that the δ-methyl groups and the γ-methinyl group of leucine are the only tritiated positions in the molecule.
