New Strategy for the Stereoselective Synthesis of Fluorinated β-Amino Acids
2002
Racemic and chiral nonracemic alpha-substituted and alpha-unsubstituted beta-fluoroalkyl beta-amino acid derivatives 6 and 9 have been synthesized in two steps starting from fluorinated imidoyl chlorides 1 and ester enolates. This approach is based on the chemical reduction of previously obtained gamma-fluorinated beta-enamino esters 4 by using ZnI(2)/NaBH(4) in a nonchelated aprotic medium (dry CH(2)Cl(2)) as the reducing agent. A metal-chelated six-membered model has been suggested to explain the stereochemical outcome of the reduction reaction. The process takes place with high yields and with moderate to good diastereoselectivity. The best results related to diastereoselective reduction…

Asymmetric Synthesis of New β,β-Difluorinated Cyclic Quaternary α-Amino Acid Derivatives
2006
The synthesis of new beta,beta-difluorinated cyclic quaternary alpha-amino acid derivatives 1 in which a ring-closing metathesis reaction (RCM) constitutes the key step is described. The approach employs imidoyl chlorides 3 as fluorinated building blocks, and the overall process involves the stereoselective creation of a quaternary stereocenter. Complete selectivity was achieved when (R)-phenylglycinol methyl ether was used as chiral auxiliary, allowing for the preparation of new six-membered cyclic fluorinated alpha-amino acids as single enantiomers.
ChemInform Abstract: Carbohydrate Auxiliaries in Stereoselective Syntheses of Decahydroquinoline Alkaloids.
2010
Using tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-D-galactopyranosylamine as the chiral auxiliary, both trans- and cis-annelated decahydroquinoline alkaloids can be synthesized stereoselectively. This methodology of asymmetric synthesis is based on the effect that both enantiomers of 2,6-disubstituted piperidin-4-ones are selectively and alternatively accessible using the auxiliary as the identical stereodifferentiating tool. In addition, the carbohydrate auxiliary controls the stereoselective protonation of enolates formed by conjugate addition of cuprates to N-galactosyl octahydroquinolin-4-ones. The syntheses of trans-4a-epi-pumiliotoxin C and cis-4a-epi-perhydro-219A illustrate this concept of asymmetric synthe…
ChemInform Abstract: Enantioselective Syntheses of Dopaminergic (R)- and (S)-Benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines.
2010
Optically pure (1S,R)- and (1R,S)-benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines (BTHIQs), 12a,b as the major diastereomers, were prepared by stereoselective reduction of the isoquinolinium salt possessing (R)- and (S)-phenylglycinol as the chiral auxiliary, respectively. The absolute configurations of (1S,R)-13a hydrochloride (O-debenzoylated derivative from 12a) and (1R,S)-12b diastereomers were unambiguously determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Reductive removal of the chiral auxiliary group, subsequent N-propylation, and cleavage of the methylenedioxy group furnished the optically active catecholamines (1S)-16a and (1R)-16b in good overall yield. We have separately prepared for the first time pa…

Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of the enantiomers of monoterpene-based β-amino acid derivatives
2007
Abstract The regio- and stereospecific addition of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate to cis-δ-pinene enantiomers has furnished monoterpene-fused β-lactams. The observed regioselectivity can be explained by ab initio DFT modeling of transition state structures. In contrast with the less reactive α-pinane-fused β-lactam 4, the resulting β-lactams 5 and 13 containing an amino group connected to a secondary carbon possess similar reactivity to the cycloalkane-fused analogues and can be easily converted to the β-amino acid and its protected derivatives. The base-catalyzed isomerization of the cis-amino ester afforded the corresponding trans-amino ester in moderate yield.

Evaluation of enantioselective binding of propanocaine to human serum albumin by ultrafiltration and electrokinetic chromatography under intermediate…
2011
Abstract Stereoselectivity in protein binding can have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of chiral drugs. In this paper, the enantioselective binding of propanocaine (PRO) enantiomers to human serum albumin (HSA), the most relevant plasmatic protein in view of stereoselectivity, has been evaluated by incubation and ultrafiltration of racemic PRO–HSA mixtures and chiral analysis of the bound and unbound fractions by electrokinetic chromatography using HSA as chiral selector. Experimental conditions for the separation of PRO enantiomers using HSA as chiral selector and electrokinetic chromatography have been optimised. Affinity constants and protein bi…
Synthesis of the aggregation pheromone of the Colorado potato beetle from its degradation product
2015
Incubation of the Colorado potato beetle aggregation pheromone, (S)-1,3-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-6-octen-2-one, with antennal or leg extracts from this beetle gave 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one as the major product. This ketone was used as a substrate in a stereoselective synthesis of the pheromone. It was attached to the butanediacetal of glycolic acid with good stereoselectivity and the desired isomer was further enriched by purification of the product of this reaction on silica gel.
