The preparation of enantiomerically pure cyclopropylalanine
摘要:
Single enantiomer cyclopropylalanine (>99.9% ee) and various derivatives were prepared using an asymmetric hydrogenation approach with a rhodium catalyst based on the methyl BoPhox(TM) ligand. N-Boc cyclopropylalanine benzyl ester was the preferred derivative, as this material is ripe for further selective reaction and can be recrystallized to >99.5%, enantiomeric excess.

series of ligands with a novel phosphine-aminophosphine ligation design as depicted in structure 1 has been prepared on a ferrocenylethyl backbone. These BoPhoz ligands of structure 2 have afforded exceedingly high activity and enantioselectivity in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of dehydro-alpha-amino acid derivatives, itaconic acids, and alpha-ketoesters. These air-stable ligands are readily

[GRAPHICS]A new class of bidentate ligands utilizing a phosphine-aminophosphine structure has been prepared on a ferrocenylethyl backbone in a straightforward and scalable fashion from acetylferrocene. The unique property of the alpha-ferrocenyl carbonium ion that allows the replacement of a variety of "leaving groups" with retention of configuration greatly facilitates the synthesis, and a number of ligands have been prepared by varying the nitrogen and phosphorus substituents on the aminophosphine. These readily prepared phosphinoferrocenylaminophosphines, known as BoPhoz ligands, show surprising hydrolytic and air stability, with no degradation after 3 years open to the air. The rhodium complexes of these ligands show exceedingly high enantioselectivities (generally >95% ee) and activities often in excess of 50 000 catalyst turnovers per hour for the asymmetric hydrogenation of a wide variety of dehydro-alpha-amino acid and itaconic acid derivatives. They also show high activity and good to excellent enantioselectivity for the hydrogenation of a number of alpha-ketoesters.

A new and versatile synthesis of phosphine-aminophosphine ligands allows the incorporation of a wide range of nitrogen and phosphorus substituents into these ligands, several of which exhibit improved properties for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation reactions. This synthesis also allows the preparation of mixed phosphine-phosphoramidite species. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
