(R)-α-aminoadipic acid: An interesting chiral pool building block

(R)-α-Aminoadipic acid is available on a large scale by enzymatic cleavage from cephalosporin C (CephC) in the production of 7- aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA). It can be converted into other interesting enantiomerically pure compounds, e.g. derivatives of (R)-pipecolic acid (Rpiperidine 2-carboxylic acid), (R)-6-oxopiperidine-2-carboxylic acid, (R)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine 2(2H)-carboxylates, and other compounds obtained by further conversions of these products.

SYNTHESIS OF THE RACEMIC AND OPTICALLY ACTIVE FORMS OF GIZZEROSINE, THE INDUCER OF GIZZARD EROSION IN CHICKS

The racemate end both the (R)- and (S)-forms of gizzerosine were synthesised, and the (S)-isomer was identified as the toxic substance in fish meal causing severe gizzard erosion (black vomit) in chicks.
