The aminohydroxylation of various alkenes using FmocNHCl as a nitrogen source is reported. In general, in the absence of a ligand, the reaction provided racemic Fmoc-protected amino alcohols with excellent regioselectivity but in low to moderate yields. However, in some instances, the yield of an amino alcohol product and the regioselectivity could be altered by the addition of a catalytic amount of triethylamine (TEA). The Sharpless asymmetric variant of this reaction (Sharpless asymmetric aminohydroxylation (SAAH)), using (DHQD)2PHAL (DHQD) or (DHQ)2PHAL (DHQ) as chiral ligands, proceeded more readily and in higher yield compared to the same reaction in the absence of a chiral ligand. The enantiomeric ratios (er) of all but two examples exceeded 90:10 with many examples giving er values of 95:5 or higher, making FmocNHCl a highly practical reagent for preparing chiral amino alcohols. The SAAH reaction using FmocNHCl was used for the preparation of d-threo-β-hydroxyasparagine and d-threo-β-methoxyaspartate, suitably protected for Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Synthetically useful N-Fmoc amino-alkyl isothiocyanates have been described, starting from protected amino acids. These compounds have been synthesized in excellent yields by thiocarbonylation of the monoprotected 1,2-diamines with CS2/TEA/p-TsCl, isolated as stable solids, and completely characterized. The procedure has been extended to the synthesis of amino alkyl isothiocyanates from Boc- and Z-protected amino acids as well. The utility of these isothiocyanates for peptidomimetics synthesis has been demonstrated by employing them in the preparation of a series of dithioureidopeptide esters. Boc-Gly-OH and Boc-Phe-OH derived isothiocyanates 9a and 9c have been obtained as single crystals and their structures solved through X-ray diffraction. They belong to the orthorhombic crystal system, and have a single molecule in the asymmetric unit (Z′ = 1). 9a crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group Pbca, while 9c crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space group P212121.

Phosphomolybdic acid supported on silica gel provides a truly catalytic method for the chemoselective cleavage of benzylidene acetals having sensitive functional groups under mild conditions. It is easy to perform on large scale owing to minimal catalyst loading (0.5 mol-%). Several sensitive functional groups such as TBDPS ether, -OMs, -OAc, allyl ether, N-Boc, N-Fmoc and N-Cbz are stable under the reaction conditions. In addition, benzylidene acetal is selectively cleaved in the presence of isopropylidene ketal. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2008.
