γ-Oxo α-amino acids and γ-aryl α-amino acids are compounds with very interesting biological properties and are active components of many drug molecules. Oxo amino acids are also used as synthetic precursors for a number of unnatural amino acids and amino alcohols. We report a very efficient synthesis of such compounds through the coupling of aromatic dithianes, prepared from aromatic aldehydes and an iodide derivative of serine. The dithiane groups in compounds thus obtained can be either hydrolyzed or reduced to generate 4-oxo-4-aryl or 4-aryl 2-amino butanol derivatives, respectively, which, on further transformations, can be converted into the title compounds. Starting with L-serine provides the corresponding D-amino acids with complete enantiopurity. The reported method is economically viable and complements the existing methods, which rely largely on cross-coupling reactions.

The Garner aldehyde-derived methylene alkene 5 and the corresponding benzyloxycarbonyl compound 25 undergo hydroboration with 9-BBN-H followed by palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reactions with aryl and vinyl halides. After one-pot hydrolysis -oxidation, a range of known and novel nonproteinogenic amino acids were isolated as their N-protected derivatives. These novel organoborane homoalanine anion equivalents are generated and transformed under mild conditions and with wide functional group tolerance: electron-rich and -poor aromatic iodides and bromides (and a vinyl bromide) all undergo efficient Suzuki coupling. The extension of this methodology to prepare meso-DAP, R,R-DAP, and R,R-DAS is also described.

The Gamer aldehyde-derived methylene alkene has been hydroborated using 9-BBN and the resulting organoborane employed in palladium-catalysed Suzuki coupling reactions to produce, after hydrolysis-oxidation, a range of novel amino acids as their N-BOC protected derivatives.
