Asymmetric Syntheses of Amino Acids by Addition of Cyanide to the Schiff Bases in the Presence of Cyanide-Modified Hemin-Copolymer
Saito, Kiyoshi,Harada, Kaoru
, p. 4535 - 4538 (1989)
Sterically controlled addition reactions of CN group to the Schiff bases by using CN-modified hemin-copolymer were carried out, and the optical yields (80-95 e.e.) of the resulting amino acids were much higher than that obtained without hemin-copolymer.

The diastereoselective addition of higher order (H.O.) cuprates and zinc-copper reagents to aliphatic and aromatic chiral imines derived from (S)-1-phenylethylamine was examined. Aliphatic chiral imines react with (Allyl)2CuCNLi2 and (n-Bu)2Cu(CN)Li2 in the presence of BF3-Et2O and Me3SiCl in high diastereoselection, while c-C6H11Cu(CN)ZnI and AllylCu(CN)ZnBr afford chiral amines in comparable yields without additives. Moreover the synthesis of a key intermediate towards a δ-amino-acid was reported.
