A new chiral auxiliary for the diastereoselective alkylation of amino ester enolates that takes advantage of chiral information stored on the enolate side of the amino ester substrate has been developed. Chiral α-sulfinamido esters were alkylated under basic conditions in good yields (up to 90%) and good to high diastereoselectivities (generally >6:1) to provide unnatural mono- and α,α-disubstituted amino acid derivatives. This auxiliary allowed for the ready conversion of ester functionality without the need for esoteric reagents. Furthermore, the auxiliary is easily removed to provide enantiopure amino acids. Computational studies revealed that a chelated transition state governs electrophile addition from the convex face of a transient bicyclic intermediate. This method allows ready access to enantioenriched natural and unnatural amino acids.

Phase-transfer alkylation of the benzophenone Schiff base of glycine methyl or ethyl ester (2) was found to be catalyzed by 3,4,5-F 3-C6H2-NAS-Br [(S,S)-1] with high efficiency and excellent enantioselectivity. This procedure allows facile derivatization of the resulting alkylation products to other synthetically useful chiral building blocks.

Racemic (R,S)-4-formyl-5-hydroxyparacyclophane (FHPC) was resolved into enantiomers via its Schiff's base with (S)- and (R)-α-phenylethylamine (α-PEAM) and its absolute configuration was determined by an X-ray diffraction structural study.Scalemic FHPC or its derivatives can be used as chiral auxiliaries for the asymmetric synthesis of β-hydroxy-α-amino acids and α-methylphenylalanine with ees ranging mostly from 45 to 98percent.
