We report here a scalable, catalytic one-pot approach to enantiopure and unmodified β2-amino acids. A newly developed confined imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi) catalyzes a broadly applicable reaction of diverse bis-silyl ketene acetals with a silylated aminomethyl ether, followed by hydrolytic workup, to give free β2-amino acids in high yields, purity, and enantioselectivity. Importantly, both aromatic and aliphatic β2-amino acids can be obtained using this method. Mechanistic studies are consistent with the aminomethylation to proceed via silylium-based asymmetric counteranion-directed catalysis (Si-ACDC) and a transition state to explain the enantioselectivity is suggested on the basis of density functional theory calculation.

Kisspeptin analogues with improved metabolic stability may represent important ligands in the study of the kisspeptin/KISS1R system and have therapeutic potential. In this paper we assess the activity of known and novel kisspeptin analogues utilising a du
Organocatalysed decarboxylative protonation process from Meldrum's acid: Enantioselective synthesis of isoxazolidinones
Tite, Tony,Sabbah, Mohamad,Levacher, Vincent,Briere, Jean-Francois
, p. 11569 - 11571 (2013/12/04)
An asymmetric organocatalysed decarboxylative protonation reaction allowed a straightforward synthesis of α-substituted isoxazolidin-5-ones from readily available 5-substituted Meldrum's acids. This process is initiated by an anionic formal (3+2) cycloaddition-fragmentation, generated in-situ from a sulfone-amide precursor which also served as a latent source of proton.
