Novel Use of N-Benzoyl-N,O-acetals as N-Acylimine Equivalents in Asymmetric Heterocycloaddition: An Extended Enantioselective Pathway to β-Benzamido Aldehydes
摘要:
For the first time, easily available N-(alpha-methoxyalkyl)amides were successfully used as synthetic equivalents of N-acylimines in an asymmetric heterocycloaddition process. The facial-controlled formation of 6-alkoxydihydrooxazines was thus achieved by SnCl4-promoted heterocycloaddition of (R)-O-vinyl pantolactone. By simple acidic hydrolysis of the crude heteroadducts, new beta-aryl- and beta-alkyl-substituted benzamido aldehydes were thus obtained in good overall yields with high enantioselectivities.

The diastereoselective addition of triorganozincates to (R)-N-(tert-butanesulfinyl)imines has been used as a key step to achieve the synthesis of highly enantiomerically enriched N-protected alpha- and beta-amino acids. Desulfinylation of the addition products followed by benzoylation of the nitrogen atom of the obtained primary amines and oxidation of one of the substituents on the carbon atom connected to the nitrogen complete the sequence. Using the same configuration in the sulfinyl chiral auxiliary, alpha-amino acids with the (R) or the (S) configuration can be prepared by choosing the proper combination of imine and organozincate. alpha,alpha-Disubstituted alpha-amino esters with high enantiomeric purity can also be prepared when a-imino esters are the starting substrates.
