The hyperpolarization of nuclear spins is a game-changing technology that enables hitherto inaccessible applications for magnetic resonance in chemistry and biomedicine. Despite significant advances and discoveries in the past, however, the quest to establish efficient and effective hyperpolarization methods continues. Here, we describe a new method that combines the advantages of direct parahydrogenation, high polarization (P), fast reaction, and low cost with the broad applicability of polarization transfer via proton exchange. We identified the system propargyl alcohol + pH2 → allyl alcohol to yield 1H polarization in excess of P ≈ 13% by using only 50% enriched pH2 at a pressure of ≈1 bar. The polarization was then successfully relayed via proton exchange from allyl alcohol to various target molecules. The polarizations of water and alcohols (as target molecules) approached P ≈ 1% even at high molar concentrations of 100 mM. Lactate, glucose, and pyruvic acid were also polarized, but to a lesser extent. Several potential improvements of the methodology are discussed. Thus, the parahydrogen-induced hyperpolarization relayed via proton exchange (PHIP-X) is a promising approach to polarize numerous molecules which participate in proton exchange and support new applications for magnetic resonance.

Parahydrogen-induced polarization (PHIP) is a method for enhancing NMR sensitivity. The pairwise addition of parahydrogen in aqueous media by heterogeneous catalysts can lead to applications in chemical and biological systems. Polarization enhancement can be transferred from 1H to 13C for longer lifetimes by using zero field cycling. In this work, water-dispersible N-acetylcysteine- and l-cysteine-stabilized palladium nanoparticles are introduced, and carbon polarizations up to 2 orders of magnitude higher than in previous aqueous heterogeneous PHIP systems are presented. P13C values of 1.2 and 0.2% are achieved for the formation of hydroxyethyl propionate from hydroxyethyl acrylate and ethyl acetate from vinyl acetate, respectively. Both nanoparticle systems are easily synthesized in open air, and TEM indicates an average size of 2.4 ± 0.6 nm for NAC@Pd and 2.5 ± 0.8 nm for LCys@Pd nanoparticles with 40 and 25% ligand coverage determined by thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. As a step toward biological relevance, results are presented for the unprotected amino acid allylglycine upon aqueous hydrogenation of propargylglycine.

A simple, yet powerful protocol for α-amino acid synthesis using carbon dioxide (CO2) was developed. α-Amino silanes could undergo four successive reactions (formation of ammonium salt, carboxylation, esterification, and 2,3- or 1,2-Stevens rearrangement) in the presence of allylic or benzylic halides under a CO2 atmosphere (1 atm). It is noteworthy that carboxylation at the position adjacent to a nitrogen atom proceeded via an ammonium ylide intermediate under mild conditions.

In order to deprotect N-carbobenzoxy-l-aminoacids (Cbz-AA) and related compounds, a series of microorganisms was selected from soil by enrichment cultures with Cbz-l-Glu as sole nitrogen source. A lyophilized whole-cell preparation of two Arthrobacter sp. strains grown on Cbz-Glu or Cbz-Gly exhibited a high cleavage activity. The conditions of hydrolysis have been optimized and a quantitative enantioselective deprotection of several Cbz-dl-amino acids was obtained, as well as the deprotection of N-carbamoylester derivatives of several synthetic amino compounds. The preparation of Cbz-d-allylglycine and l-allylglycine in high yield and high optical purity is described as an application of this method.

Microwave irradiation has been proven to be a useful tool in the rapid assembly of racemic unnatural amino acids in only two steps. Additional benefits of this methodology are the commercial availability of the inexpensive starting materials and the high yields and high purities of the final amino acid products.

Hydroxyglycine, the ammonia adduct of glyoxylic acid, was found to react with various allylboronates in the presence of triethylamine in methanol to give unprotected α-amino acids directly with high stereoselectivity. For instance, the reactions with (E)- and (Z)-crotylboronates afforded the corresponding anti- and syn-crotylated products (isoleucine and alloisoleucine after hydrogenation) with high diastereoselectivity, respectively. Interestingly, it was found that isomerization of the products (γ-adducts to α-adducts) occurred under the reaction conditions in some cases. Control experiments have suggested that the isomerization took place via 2-aza (or azonia) Cope rearrangement of imines derived from γ-adducts and glyoxylic acid.

Three-component reactions of aldehydes, ammonia, and allylboronates were found to provide homoallylic primary amines in high yields with high chemo- and stereoselectivities. A two-step, one-pot, stereoselective synthesis of an uncommon α-amino acid, alloisoleucine, was achieved utilizing this reaction. Copyright

Achiral, diamagnetic Ni(II) complexes 1 and 3 have been synthesized from Ni(II) salts and the Schiff bases, generated from glycine and PBP (7) and PBA (11), respectively, in MeONa/MeOH solutions. The requisite carbonyl-derivatizing agents pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-benzoyl-phenyl)-amide 7 (PBP) and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-formyl-phenyl)-amide 11 (PBA) were readily prepared from picolinic acid and o-aminobenzophenone or picolinic acid and methyl o-anthranilate, respectively. The structure of 1 was established by X-ray crystallography. Complexes 1 and 3 were found to undergo C-alkylation with alkyl halides under PTC conditions in the presence of β-naphthol or benzyltriethylammonium bromide as catalysts to give mono- and bis-alkylated products, respectively. Decomposition of the complexes with aqueous HCI under mild conditions gave the required amino acids, and PBP and PBA were recovered. Alkylation of 1 with highly reactive alkyl halides, carried out under the PTC conditions in the presence of 10% mol of (S)- or (R)-2-hydroxy-2′ -amino-1,1′-binaphthyl 31a (NOBIN) and/or its N-acyl derivatives and by (S)- or (R)-2-hydroxy-8′-amino-1,1′-binaphthyl 32a (iso-NOBIN) and its N-acyl derivatives, respectively, gave rise to α-amino acids with high enantioselectivities (90-98.5% ee) in good-to-excellent chemical yields at room temperature within several minutes. An unusually large positive nonlinear effect was observed in these reactions. The Michael addition of acrylic derivatives 37 to 1 was conducted under similar conditions with up to 96% ee. The 1H NMR and IR spectra of a mixture of the sodium salt of NOBIN and 1 indicated formation of a complex between the two components. Implications of the association and self-association of NOBIN for the observed sense of asymmetric induction and nonlinear effects are discussed.

Cycloaddition of chiral cyclic ketones such as (-)-menthone, (+)-nopinone, and (+)-camphenilone to nitrosokelene generated by thermolysis of 5-hydroxyimino-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6 dione gave the corresponding chiral spiro 3-oxazolin-5-one 3-oxides (chiral cyclic nitrones). These nitrones underwent asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloddition reactions with electron rich olefins to give the corresponding oxazolidine derivatives with high diastereoselectivity, which were converted to optically pure amino acids.
