Highly Diastereoselective Heterogeneously Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Enamines for the Synthesis of Chiral β-Amino Acid Derivatives
摘要:
Pure (Z)-enamines readily prepared from beta-ketoesters and amides using (S)-phenylglycine amide were hydrogenated with very high diastereoselectivities (up to 200:1) using heterogeneous catalysis. Hydrogenolytic cleavage of the (S)-phenylglycine amide afforded the corresponding chiral beta-aminoesters and amides. The high geometrical purity of the (Z)-enamine and a simple activation procedure for the PtO2 catalyst are essential in achieving high selectivity.

The present invention relates to a process for the synthesis of chiral beta-amino acid derivatives and in particular to a process for the preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta-amino acid amide inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DP-IV) which are useful for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes.
