, p. 3649 - 3650 (2003)
(Matrix presented) D-tert-Leucine was prepared with an enantiomeric excess of >99% by an enzyme-catalyzed oxidative resolution of the racemic mixture of DL-tert-leucine with use of leucine dehydrogenase. The L-amino acid was oxidized completely due to coupling of the primary reaction with a highly efficient irreversible NAD+-regenerating step by NADH oxidase.

Paragraph 0036; 0046-0048, (2020/06/16)
The invention discloses a method for preparing D-type or L-type tert-leucine, and belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The method comprises the following steps: 1, condensing glyoxylate serving as a raw material with chiral tert-butyl sulfinamide to obtain Schiff base; and 2, carrying out a reaction on the Schiff base with a tert-butyl Grignard reagent and a catalyst under a low-temperature condition, and hydrolyzing the reaction product under an acid/alkali condition to obtain D-type or L-type tert-leucine. The method is simple and convenient to operate and high in reaction yield, the purity and content of the obtained product are greater than 99%, the content of a single impurity is less than 0.2%, the chiral purity is greater than or equal to 98.5%, and the method has apotential process amplification prospect.

How can you use a ruthenium isomerization catalyst twice? A ruthenium-catalyzed sequence for the formal two-carbon scission of allyl groups to carboxylic acids has been developed. The reaction includes an initial isomerization step using commercially available ruthenium catalysts followed by in situ transformation of the complex to a metal-oxo species, which is capable of catalyzing subsequent oxidation reactions. The method enables enantioselective syntheses of challenging α-tri- and tetrasubstituted α-amino acids including an expedient total synthesis of the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam.
