The transamination of α-keto acids with 2-phenylglycine is an effective methodology for directly synthesizing unprotected α-amino acids. However, the synthesis of 2-arylglycines by transamination is problematic because the corresponding products, 2-arylglycines, transaminate the starting arylglyoxylic acids. Herein, we demonstrate the use of commercially available l-2-(2-chlorophenyl)glycine as the nitrogen source in the transamination of arylglyoxylic acids, producing the corresponding 2-arylglycines without interference from the undesired self-transamination process.

A ruthenium pincer catalyst has been shown to be highly effective for the hydrogenation of a wide range of α-keto esters, affording either diols or hydroxy esters depending on the choice of reaction conditions. Strong base, high temperature, and pressure favor the formation of diols whilst the opposite is true for the hydroxy esters.

The Pt-catalyzed enantioselective diboration of terminal alkenes can be accomplished in an enantioselective fashion in the presence of chiral phosphonite ligands. Optimal procedures and the substrate scope of this transformation are fully investigated. Reaction progress kinetic analysis and kinetic isotope effects suggest that the stereodefining step in the catalytic cycle is olefin migratory insertion into a Pt-B bond. Density functional theory analysis, combined with other experimental data, suggests that the insertion reaction positions platinum at the internal carbon of the substrate. A stereochemical model for this reaction is advanced that is in line both with these features and with the crystal structure of a Pt-ligand complex.
One-pot synthesis of enantiomerically pure 1, 2-diols: Asymmetric reduction of aromatic α-oxoaldehydes catalysed by Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330
Mahajabeen, Pula,Chadha, Anju
, p. 2156 - 2160 (2012/05/04)
A facile and simple one-pot method was developed to produce a series of optically active (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediols with good yields (up to 70%) and high enantiomeric excess (>99%) via asymmetric reduction of various substituted aromatic α-oxoaldehydes using Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330.
Facile synthesis of glycol metabolites of phenethylamine drugs
Holshouser,Kolb
, p. 619 - 621 (2007/10/02)
High yields of potential glycol metabolites of p-synephrine, epinephrine, octopamine, and normacromerine can be obtained from the readily available monosubstituted and disubstituted acetophenones. The general procedure involves alpha-bromination followed by displacement with acetate ion and reduction with lithium aluminum hydride. Yields ranged from 46 to 91%. Furthermore, the procedure minimizes some problems inherent in aromatic glycol synthesis which include dimerization and pinacol-pinacolone rearrangement.
