Palladium-Catalyzed Allylic Alkylation of Aldimine Esters with Vinyl-Cyclopropanes to Yield α,α-Disubstituted α-Amino Acid Derivatives

A synthetically useful approach for the synthesis of functionalized α, α-disubstituted α-amino acid derivatives via palladium-catalyzed 1,7 addition of readily available aldimine esters to vinylcyclopropanes is reported. This methodology was operated under mild conditions, affording α-allylic α-amino esters in good to excellent yields and excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. This transformation displays broad functional-group tolerance and enantioselective allylic alkylation has also been realized using a chiral phosphine ligand to provide the desired product. (Figure presented.).

The reactions of α-amino acids and α-amino acid esters with high valent transition metal halides: synthesis of coordination complexes, activation processes and stabilization of α-ammonium acylchloride cations

Titanium tetrachloride smoothly reacted with a selection of α-amino acids (aaH) in CH2Cl2 affording yellow to orange solid coordination compounds, 1a-d, in 70-78% yields. The salts [NHEt3][TiCl4(aa)], 2a-b, were obtained from TiCl4/aaH/NEt3 (aa = l-phenylalanine, N,N-dimethylphenylalanine), in 60-65% yields. The complex , 3, was isolated from the reaction of l-proline with NbCl5/NHiPr2, performed in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. The X-ray structure of 3 features a bridging (E)-1,2-bis(3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-5-yl)ethene-1,2-diolate ligand, resulting from the unprecedented C-C coupling between two proline units. Unusually stable α-ammonium acyl chlorides were prepared by the reactions of PCl5/MCln (MCln = NbCl5, WCl6) with l-proline, N,N-dimethylphenylalanine, sarcosine and l-methionine. MX5 (M = Nb, Ta; X = F, Cl) reacted with l-leucine methylester and l-proline ethylester to give ionic coordination compounds, [MX4L2][MX6] (M = Nb, L = Me2CHCH2CH(NH2)CO2Me, X = F, 9; Cl, 11a; M = Nb, X = Cl, , 11c; Ta, 11d), in moderate to good yields. [NbCl5(Me2CHCH2CHNH3CO2Me)][NbCl6], 12, was isolated as a co-product of the reaction of NbCl5 with l-leucine isopropylester, and crystallographically characterized. The reaction of NbCl5 with l-serine isopropylester afforded NbCl3(OCH2CHNHCO2iPr), 13, in 66% yield. The activation of the ester O-R bond was observed in the reactions of l-leucine methyl ester with NbF5 and l-proline ethyl ester with MBr5 (M = Nb, Ta), these reactions proceeding with the release of EtF and EtBr, respectively. All the metal products were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods, while DFT calculations were carried out in order to provide insight into the structural and mechanistic aspects.

Efficient microwave-assisted esterification reaction employing methanesulfonic acid supported on alumina as catalyst

A rapid and efficient protocol assisted by microwave irradiation for the synthesis of esters using methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H) supported on Al2O3 (AMA) as catalyst and free of solvent is described. The products were obtained in good yields and purity, with reduced reaction time, and the process is simple and environmentally benign. Copyright

1H NMR study on the intermolecular interactions of macrocyclic and single α-Amino acids

Through analysis of 1H NMR spectra, evidence was found for intermolecular interactions between macrocyclic amino acid derivatives from L-tyrosine and their importance in the formation of aggregates in solution. It was also shown that both macrocyclic and simple amino acids are capable of retaining alcohol molecules through hydrogen bonding, where the alcohol molecule acts as a proton donor and the amino group acts as an acceptor.

Champacyclin, a new cyclic octapeptide from Streptomyces strain C42 isolated from the Baltic Sea

New isolates of Streptomyces champavatii were isolated from marine sediments of the Gotland Deep (Baltic Sea), from the Urania Basin (Eastern Mediterranean), and from the Kiel Bight (Baltic Sea). The isolates produced several oligopeptidic secondary metabolites, including the new octapeptide champacyclin (1a) present in all three strains. Herein, we report on the isolation, structure elucidation and determination of the absolute stereochemistry of this isoleucine/leucine (Ile/Leu = Xle) rich cyclic octapeptide champacyclin (1a). As 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy could not fully resolve the structure of (1a), additional information on sequence and configuration of stereocenters were obtained by a combination of multi stage mass spectrometry (MSn) studies, amino acid analysis, partial hydrolysis and subsequent enantiomer analytics with gas chromatography positive chmical ionization/electron impact mass spectrometry (GC-PCI/EI-MS) supported by comparison to reference dipeptides. Proof of the head-to-tail cyclization of (1a) was accomplished by solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) compared to an alternatively side chain cyclized derivative (2). Champacyclin (1a) is likely synthesized by a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS), because of high content of (D)-amino acids. The compound (1a) showed antimicrobial activity against the phytopathogen Erwinia amylovora causing the fire blight disease of certain plants.
