The disilylation of alpha-amino acids 1 to provide 2 (72-87%) was achieved without racemization. An unprecedented borane-mediated semi-reduction strategy was devised to convert 2 to stable, isolable oxazaborolidines 3 (100%) which were hydrolyzed to provide 5 (49-60%) as pure, stable compounds. Analysis of the Mosher amides (8) of the gamma-amino esters 7 reveals that < or =2% racemization occurs in the 1 --> 8 conversions.
α-氨基酸1的二硅烷化反应可在不发生消旋化的情况下得到2(产率72 - 87%)。我们设计了一种前所未有的硼烷介导的半还原策略,将2转化为稳定、可分离的恶唑硼烷3(产率100%),3经水解得到纯净、稳定的化合物5(产率49 - 60%)。对γ-氨基酸酯7的Mosher酰胺(8)的分析表明,在1→8的转化过程中发生了≤2%的消旋化。
