Synthesis and stereochemical studies of 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives
2000
A series of new 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives which have potentially useful immunological properties, have been synthesized in a stereoselective manner by coupling 2-subsituted thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids with amines or amino esters. The structure of these compounds was established by combination of NMR methods and by X-ray analysis.

2016
The synthesis of new fluorinated pyrrolidones starting from unprotected amino esters and amino nitriles through a Michael addition-lactamization sequence is described. The resulting CF3 -containing building blocks, bearing a quaternary stereogenic center adjacent to the fluorinated group, have been converted into amino pyrrolidines that display potent β-secretase 1 (BACE1) inhibitory activity. This work constitutes an example of selective fluorination as a valid strategy for the modulation of physicochemical and biological properties of lead compounds in drug discovery.
Gold catalyzed stereoselective tandem hydroamination–formal aza-Diels–Alder reaction of propargylic amino esters
2013
A gold-catalyzed tandem intramolecular hydroamination-formal aza-Diels-Alder reaction of propargylic amino esters is described. The overall process leads to the formation of a tetracyclic framework as a single diastereoisomer, with the creation of four bonds and five stereocenters.

Under optimized conditions, the title reaction leads to formation of a tetracyclic nitrogen-containing framework with generation of 4 bonds and 5 stereocenters.
ChemInform Abstract: Gold Catalyzed Stereoselective Tandem Hydroamination-Formal Aza-Diels-Alder Reaction of Propargylic Amino Esters.
2013
The overall sequence of the tandem reaction presented here leads to nitrogen-containing tetracycles under formation of 4 bonds and five stereocenters, in most cases as single diastereoisomers.

2015
A tandem gold-catalyzed hydroamination/formal aza-Diels-Alder reaction is described. This process, which employs quaternary homopropargyl amino ester substrates, leads to the formation of an intrincate tetracyclic framework and involves the generation of four bonds and five stereocenters in a highly diastereoselective manner. Theoretical calculations have allowed us to propose a suitable mechanistic rationalization for the tandem protocol. Additionally, by studying the influence of the ligands on the rate of the gold-catalyzed reactions, it was possible to establish optimum conditions in which to perform the process with a variety of substituents on the amino ester substrates. Notably, the …
Diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of orthogonally protected 2,4-diaminocyclopentanecarboxylates: a flip from beta-amino- to beta,gamma-diamin…
2007
Conformationally restricted, orthogonally protected 2,4-diaminocarboxylates with a cyclopentane skeleton were efficiently synthesized from beta-lactam 6, the syntheses involving strategies of diastereoselective epoxidation of the beta-lactam and the corresponding monoprotected amino esters with opposite selectivities followed by regioselective opening of the oxirane ring with sodium azide. The enantiomers were also prepared. This new class of compounds can be regarded not only as conformationally constrained beta,gamma-diamino acid derivatives but also as potential functionalized carbocyclic nucleoside precursors.

Efficient Synthesis of β-Halogeno Protected L-Alanines and Their β-Phosphonium Derivatives.
2003
Abstract Ring opening of oxazolines, prepared from l -serinates, with trimethylsilyl halides (TMSX) led to β-halogeno-N-benzoyl-α-amino esters in good to excellent yields. Quaternization of triphenylphosphine by the β-bromo or -iodo amino esters gave the corresponding β-phosphonium salts in overall yields of up to 93% and with e.e. >96%. Hydrolysis of the ester function afforded the phosphonium salt bearing an N-benzoyl-α-amino acid substituent, with partial racemization. However, the reaction of the TMSX with the carboxylic salt, prepared by saponification of the starting oxazoline ester, furnished the corresponding β-halogeno-N-benzoyl-α-amino acids in 70–95% yields. Quaternization of tri…
First Highly Diastereoselective Synthesis of syn α-Methyl β-Fluoroalkyl β-Amino Esters
1999
A new two-step approach for the diastereoselective synthesis of the syn α-methyl β-fluoroalkyl β-amino esters 4 has been developed. This approach is based on the chemical reduction of the fluorinated β-enamino esters 3, which have been previously obtained from imidoyl chlorides 1 and lithium ester enolates, with ZnI2/NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The process takes place with high syn diastereoselectivity and good to excellent yields. A metal-chelated six-membered model has been suggested to explain the stereochemical outcome of the reduction reaction.
