A dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of azlactones in the presence of benzoic acid and a binaphthyl-based N,N-4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) derivative 1i having two amide groups at the 3,3′-positions of a binaphthyl unit is developed. The reaction proceeded smoothly with a wide range of azlactones to provide α-amino acid derivatives with good to high enantiomeric ratios (er's). A multigram-scale reaction (2.5 g) for the DKR of azlactone 2d was also demonstrated, and the resulting product was converted to unnatural α-amino acid 6d′.

The kinetic resolution of azlactones by the Lewis, acid-mediated transfer of an isopropoxide ligand from the chiral ligand sphere of Ti- TADDOLate is described. The reactions proceed with in-situ racemization of the starting material to afford highly enantiomerically enriched N-benzoyl- amino acid isopropylesters (er > 95:5 after recrystallization). The absolute configuration of the major enantiomer of N-benzoyl-phenylalanine isopropyl ester and its analogs with other aromatic substituents was shown to be (S)- (+) when the (R,R)-Ti-TADDOLate was employed. Only benzyl-substituted azlactones can be opened enantioselectively by the method described here.
