Enantioselective inclusion of α-amino acids with crystals of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) has been achieved by converting the amino acids into sulfonate salts with pyrene-1-sulfonic acid (PyS). For example, crystals of α-CD selectively include L-leucine/PyS (1:1) salt in a host/guest ratio of ~1 with 92%ee from a solution of the racemic salt in ethanol/N-methylformamide (91:9) at 40 °C. Under conditions optimized for individual amino acids, the PyS salts of valine, phenylalanine, and methionine are also included with good enantioselectivities (up to 86%ee). Mechanistic studies for the inclusion of leucine/PyS salt reveals that the enantioselectivity originates from the difference in stability between the inclusion complexes of D- and L-leucine/PyS salts with α-CD in crystals.

The canavanine derivatives D-canavanine and L-homocanavanine as well as the 1-methyl and 1-ethyl esters of L-canavanine were synthesized and evaluated for biological activity in fifth instar larvae of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta .While L-homocanavanine did not increase intrinsic toxicity, it was as deleterious as L-canavanine.D-Canavanine was biologically active, as demonstrated by its ability to cause larval edema, but the D-enantiomer had little ability to elicit the larval growth inhibition and pupal deformity which are hallmarks of canavanine toxicosis and was postulated to be linked to aberrant protein production.The 1-methyl and 1-ethyl esters of L-canavanine were synthesized to determine if enhancing canavanine's hydrophobicity might increase its bioavailability.Our experiments revealed that these esters are less toxic than canavanine; the ethyl ester disrupted larval growth more than did the methyl analogue. - Keywords: L-Canavanine; D-canavanine; L-homocanavanine; 1-methyl-L-canavanine; 1-ethyl-L-canavanine; Manduca sexta
