Pd(II)-mediated rearrangement of allylic N-PMP (p-methoxyphenyl) trifluoroacetimidates provides the first formal sigmatropic route to quaternary, alpha-vinylic amino acids, potential suicide substrates for PLP enzymes. The amino acid side chains enter via transition-metal-mediated C-C bond constructions, including (i) Cu(I)-mediated conjugate addition (Ala); (ii) Pd(0)/AsPh3-mediated Stille coupling (allyl-Gly, Phe, DOPA, m-Tyr); and (iii) Pd(0)/Pt-Bu3-mediated Negishi coupling (Leu). In the synthesis of the DOPA decarboxylase inactivator, alpha-vinyl-m-tyrosine, the new N-PMP trifluoroacetimidate rearranges much more efficiently than the corresponding trichloroacetimidate.
钯(II)介导的烯丙基N - PMP(对甲氧基苯基)三氟乙酰亚氨酸酯重排为季碳α-乙烯基氨基酸提供了第一条形式上的[3,3] - 迁移途径,这些氨基酸是磷酸吡哆醛(PLP)酶潜在的自杀底物。氨基酸侧链通过过渡金属介导的C - C键构建引入,包括:(i)铜(I)介导的共轭加成(丙氨酸);(ii)钯(0)/三苯基砷介导的施蒂勒偶联(烯丙基 - 甘氨酸、苯丙氨酸、多巴、间酪氨酸);以及(iii)钯(0)/三叔丁基膦介导的根岸偶联(亮氨酸)。在多巴脱羧酶失活剂α-乙烯基 - 间酪氨酸的合成中,新的N - PMP三氟乙酰亚氨酸酯的重排比相应的三氯乙酰亚氨酸酯更有效。
