Here we report the development of the first enantioselective Dakin-West reaction, yielding α-acetamido methylketones with up to 58 % ee with good yields. Two of the obtained products were recrystallized once to achieve up to 84 % ee. The employed methylimidazole-containing oligopeptides catalyze both the acetylation of the azlactone intermediate and the terminal enantioselective decarboxylative protonation. We propose a dispersion-controlled reaction path that determines the asymmetric reprotonation of the intermediate enolate after the decarboxylation.

Two new optically active phosphinopyrrolidine monomers were prepared by the reaction of (2S,4S)-4-(diphenylphosphino)-2-pyrrolidine and (2R,4R)-4-(diphenylphosphino)-2-pyrrolidine with acryloyl chloride to give N-acryloyl-(2S,4S)-4-(diphenylphosphino)-2-pyrrolidine (1) and N-acryloyl-(2R,4R)-4-(diphenylphosphino)-2-pyrrolidine (2).Copolymerization of 1 and 2 with hydrophilic comonomers and a divinyl monomer provided cross-linked insoluble polymers containing 3-5percentof 1 or 2 that would swell in polar solvents.Exchange of rhodium (I) onto the polymer gave catalysts which were active for the asymmetric hydrogenation of N-acyl α-amino acids in high optical yields, the phosphine derived from the enantiomer of the naturally occurring 4-hydroxyproline giving (S)-amino acids.The catalysts could be reused with no loss in selectivity by simple filtration.
