Oxidation of amino groups in amines or amino acids activates the sp3 Cα-H bond to form imines, making the alpha carbon atom a preferable target for nucleophilic reagents such as cyanide. Therefore, we focused on the oxidase reaction for the production of primary α-aminonitriles via imines. d-Amino acid oxidase from porcine kidney (pkDAO) and l-amino acid oxidase from Crotalus atrox catalyzed the synthesis of 2-amino-2-cyano-3-phenylpropanoic acid from phenylalanine and potassium cyanide (KCN). Mutant pkDAO (Y228L/R283G) catalyzed the synthesis of racemic-2-methyl-2-phenylglycinonitrile from (R)-α-methylbenzylamine and KCN. Based on these results, we developed a new cascade reaction for the synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids from primary amines using mutant pkDAO and nitrilase AY487533. This is the first report of the enzymatic synthesis of primary α-aminonitriles and unnatural α-amino acids. These methods will contribute widely to the synthesis of primary α-aminonitriles and unnatural α-amino acids in aqueous systems.
Palladium Catalyzed C-Arylation of Amino Acid Derived Hydantoins

Palladium(II) trifluoroacetate (5 mol %) catalyzes the C-arylation of N,N-disubstituted hydantoins by aryl iodides in good yield. The reaction proceeds through base-promoted enolization of the amino acid derived hydantoins, and the resulting 5,5-disubstituted hydantoins may be deprotected at one or both N atoms to yield biologically active structures or alternatively hydrolyzed to the parent α-aryl α-amino acids. The reaction is successful with a variety of parent amino acids and a range of electron-rich and electron-poor aryl iodides.

Bifunctional iminophosphorane organocatalysts for enantioselective synthesis: Application to the ketimine nitro-Mannich reaction
Nunez, Marta G.,Farley, Alistair J. M.,Dixon, Darren J.
, p. 16348 - 16351 (2013/12/04)
The design, synthesis, and development of a new class of modular, strongly basic, and tunable bifunctional Bronsted base/H-bond-donor organocatalysts are reported. These catalysts incorporate a triaryliminophosphorane as the Bronsted basic moiety and are readily synthesized via a last step Staudinger reaction of a chiral organoazide and a triarylphosphine. Their application to the first general enantioselective organocatalytic nitro-Mannich reaction of nitromethane to unactivated ketone-derived imines allows the enantioselective construction of β-nitroamines possessing a fully substituted carbon atom. The reaction is amenable to multigram scale-up, and the products are useful for the synthesis of enantiopure 1,2-diamine and α-amino acid derivatives.
Intramolecular arylation of amino acid enolates

Dianionic enolates formed from N′-aryl urea derivatives of amino acids undergo intramolecular C-arylation by attack of the enolate anion on the N′-aryl ring, leading to a hydantoin derivative of a quaternary amino acid. In situ IR studies allow identification of four intermediates on the reaction pathway.
Asymmetric synthesis of deuterated and fluorinated aromatic α,α-disubstituted amino acid derivatives
Hartmann, Caroline E.,Baumann, Thomas,Baechle, Michael,Braese, Stefan
scheme or table, p. 1341 - 1349 (2010/10/21)
We herein present organocatalytic approaches to synthesize fluorinated and deuterated α-substituted phenylglycine derivatives. Whereas the addition of diethyl azodicarboxylate to fluorinated α-substituted aldehydes furnishes chiral non-racemic compounds, the use of chloramine-T as a nitrogen source represents a rapid access to sulfamidated fluorinated amino acid precursors. Additionally, further functionalization was achieved through the palladium-catalyzed coupling of a p-bromosubstituted aldehyde with a range of fluorine or deuterium-containing boronic acids. Oxidation of the aldehyde function and cleavage of the protection group of the nitrogen give way to the free fluorinated unnatural amino acids.
Versatile synthesis of free and N-benzyloxycarbonyl-protected 2,2-disubstituted taurines

An effective and versatile method was developed to synthesize N-benzyloxycarbonyl-protected and free 2,2-disubstituted taurines. Several novel 2,2-disubstituted taurines, including aliphatic/aromatic and cyclic/acyclic derivatives, were obtained, which demonstrates the generality of this method. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
