Axially chiral dicarboxylic acid-catalyzed highly enantioselective imino aza-enamine reaction was elaborated into a surrogate of the asymmetric Strecker reaction building on the fact that the N,N-dialkylhydrazone moiety can be easily converted to the cyanide moiety by treatment with peracid.

A practical procedure for catalytic asymmetric synthesis of optically active arylglycine derivatives via optically active α-aminonitriles has been developed. The N-benzhydryl α-arylaminonitrile intermediates were prepared in excellent yield (89-99%) and enantiomeric purity (96 to >98% ee) by enantioselective cyanation of aldimines with TMSCN/iPrOH in the presence of 2.5 mol % of an easily prepared Ti/chiral amino alcohol complex at 0 °C, without requiring slow addition of the cyanating agent. The easily racemized α-aminonitrile intermediates were efficiently hydrolyzed by an aqueous HCl/TFA mixture to give the arylglycine derivatives in good yield (60-92%) and moderate to excellent enantiomeric purity (85-98% ee).

(Chemical Equation Presented) Optically pure allylic amines have been synthesized from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes via allylboration with (-)-B-allyldiisopinocampheylborane, followed by Overman rearrangement. By incorporating crotyl and alkoxyallylboration, functionalization at δ-position was readily accomplished. By applying this methodology, the synthesis of several chiral α-amino acids has been achieved.

An efficient protocol for the transformation of homochiral α-hydroxy-β-amino esters to their α-amino carbonyl components is presented. Diastereoselective conjugate addition of lithium (R)-N-benzyl-N-α-methylbenzylamide to a range of α,β-unsaturated esters and subsequent enolate hydroxylation with (1R)-(-)-(camphorsulfonyl)oxaziridine, followed by LiAlH4 reduction produces homochiral 3-amino 1,2-diols. Subsequent oxidative cleavage with H5IO6 provides N-benzyl-N-α-methylbenzyl protected α-amino aldehydes (96-98% d.e.) and ketones (88% d.e.). Further oxidation of the α-amino aldehydes with sodium chlorite and Pd-catalysed hydrogenation provides α-amino acids in 94-98% e.e.

A novel method for the synthesis of chiral α-amino acids has been developed where the acid functionality was constructed by oxidizing a hydroxymethyl group introduced by Evans' method in the α-position of an appropriate acid substrate and the amino part came from the amide of the original carboxyl group following a modified Hofmann rearrangement reaction.
Asymmetric synthesis of α-amino carbonyls (aldehydes, ketones and acids) using lithium (R)-N-benzyl-N-α-methylbenzylamide

, p. 1599 - 1601 (2007/10/03)
The diastereoselective conjugate addition of lithium (R)-N-benzyl-N-α-methylbenzylamide to α,β-unsaturated esters and subsequent enolate hydroxylation, followed by reduction and oxidative cleavage provides a facile route to N,N-protected α-amino aldehydes and ketones. Further manipulation furnishes α-amino acids in high enantiomeric excess.
(R)- and (S)-3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone as chiral auxiliaries in the enantioselective preparation of α-amino acids

rac-α-Amino acids (rac-1a-d) were formally deracemized by a four-step reaction sequence: (a) protection of the amino function as the phthalimido derivative; (b) acyl chloride formation; (c) diastereoselective reaction with the chiral auxiliaries (R)- or (S)-3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2- pyrrolidinone, (R)- or (S)-3; and (d) acid hydrolysis to deprotect both the ester and phthalimido functions. Diastereoselectivities of the intermediate esters 4 were good (82-96% d.e.), except for the case of 4b (41% d.e.), the precursor of valine. The main diastereoisomer of esters 4 was (αR,3S)- or (αS,3R)-, except for 4d: in this case, working at -78°C, the (αR,3R)- diastereoisomer was the main product, which epimerizes easily at the α- position when at room temperature. Acid hydrolysis of esters 4 directly gave the deprotected α-amino acids, with little or no epimerization at the α- position of the α-amino acid and complete recovery of the chiral auxiliary. Only (αR,3R)-4d on acid hydrolysis partially epimerized at the α-position. Moreover, some α-amino acids and their N,N-dibenzyl derivatives were obtained by dynamic kinetic resolution of diastereoisomeric mixtures of α- bromo esters 5 derived from the chiral auxiliaries (R)- or (S)-3 during reaction with dibenzylamine.

Photolysis of chromium complexes having the optically active amino alcohol (1R,2S)-(-)- or (1S,2R)-(+)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol as the amino group produced aryl-substituted oxazinones in good yield with reasonable diastereoselectivity.Facile separation of diastereoisomers followed by mild reductive cleavage produced several arylglycines, having either electron-donating or withdrawing groups on the aromatic ring, in good overall yield and with excellent enantiomeric excess.
Asymmetric synthesis of arylglycines
Williams,Hendrix
, p. 3723 - 3727 (2007/10/02)
The asymmetric synthesis of several arylglycines are reported. The methodology deployed involves either cuprate or Friedel - Crafts couplings to chiral bromoglycinates. The % ee's range from 82 to 94%. Both an oxidative and reductive protocol are employed to unmask the oxazinone chiral auxilliary providing the free α-amino acids.
