A novel method for the SN2 reaction on quaternary carbon atoms using bis(p-nitrophenyl)phosphorazidate has been developed. Chiral tertiary alcohols were directly converted into the corresponding chiral tertiary azides with complete inversion of configuration. Several α,α-disubstituted α-amino esters or amino acids were prepared through the conversion of azides to the corresponding amines by catalytic hydrogenation.

In order to deprotect N-carbobenzoxy-l-aminoacids (Cbz-AA) and related compounds, a series of microorganisms was selected from soil by enrichment cultures with Cbz-l-Glu as sole nitrogen source. A lyophilized whole-cell preparation of two Arthrobacter sp. strains grown on Cbz-Glu or Cbz-Gly exhibited a high cleavage activity. The conditions of hydrolysis have been optimized and a quantitative enantioselective deprotection of several Cbz-dl-amino acids was obtained, as well as the deprotection of N-carbamoylester derivatives of several synthetic amino compounds. The preparation of Cbz-d-allylglycine and l-allylglycine in high yield and high optical purity is described as an application of this method.
Microwave-assisted synthesis of cycloalkanespirohydantoins and piperidinespirohydantoins as precursors of restricted α-amino acids

Cycloalkanespirohydantoins 3 and piperidinespirohydantoins 4 were synthesized from cycloalkanones 9 and piperidones 10 under microwave-assisted conditions. Results are compared with those obtained under thermal conditions. Cycloalkanespirohydantoins 3 were N-protected with Boc group and hydrolyzed under basic conditions to obtain five, six and seven-membered ring restricted α-amino acids 12 in very good overall yields (76-94%).
