The synthesis of β-hydroxy-γ-amino acids via SmI(2)-mediated Reformatsky reactions of α-chloroacetyloxazolidinones with aminoaldehydes is reported. Diastereoselective coupling is demonstrated to depend on the absolute configuration of the Evans chiral auxiliary employed in the reaction, allowing erythro or threo products to be obtained selectively. The potential utility of the methodology is exemplified by the facile synthesis of biologically relevant N-Boc-isostatine (2b) and N-Boc-dolaisoleucine (3c).
通过 SmI(2)-介导的α-氯乙酰基恶唑烷酮与氨基酸醛的 Reformatsky 反应合成了β-羟基-γ-氨基酸。研究表明,非对映选择性偶联取决于反应中所使用的 Evans 手性助剂的绝对构型,可以选择性地得到赤型或苏型产物。该方法的潜在用途通过生物相关的 N-Boc-异亮氨酸(2b)和 N-Boc-别亮氨酸(3c)的简便合成得到了例证。
