Paragraph 0036; 0039, (2019/01/24)
The invention relates to a method for preparing 2-methylserine, and mainly solves the technical problem of being long in route, complicated in operation, and not conducive to mass production of the existing synthetic method. The method comprises the following steps: Cbz-chiral alanine and Benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal are reacted under the action of thionyl chloride and zinc chloride, a reaction product is crystallized to obtain an intermediate 1, the intermediate 1 is reacted under cooperation of an alkaline reagent to obtain an intermediate 2, an intermediate 3 is obtained from the intermediate 2 by the action of lithium hydroxide, and the final product 2-methylserine is obtained from the intermediate 3 by palladium carbon catalytic hydrogenolysis. High purity 2-methylserine can be obtained by the method.

Genes encoding α-methylserine hydroxymethyltransferase from Aminobacter sp. AJ110403 and Ensifer sp. AJ110404 were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified enzymes were homodimers with a 46-kDa subunit and contained 1 mol/mol-subunit of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate. The V max of these enzymes catalyzing the conversion of α-methyl-L-serine to D-alanine via tetrahydrofolate was 22.1 U/mg (AJ110403) and 15.4 U/mg (AJ110404).
Stereoselective addition of organometallic reagents to a chiral acyclic nitrone derived from L-erythrulose

The additions of various organolithium and organomagnesium reagents to a chiral nitrone prepared from L-erythrulose took place with variable diastereoselectivity. The degree and strength of the facial selectivity can be modified if the reaction is performed in the presence of Lewis acid additives: zinc bromide enhances the attack to the Si face of the C=N bond whereas diethyl aluminium chloride promotes attack to the Re face. The obtained adducts can be then transformed into protected N-hydroxy-α,α-disubstituted-α- amino acid derivatives as well as into the corresponding α,α- disubstituted α-amino acids.
