Synthesis of (optically active) sulfur-containing trifunctional amino acids by radical addition to (optically active) unsaturated amino acids
摘要:
Sulfur-based radicals, generated from R-S-H-type precursors (R = alkyl, acyl) with AIBN, smoothly add to alpha-allylglycines protected at none, one, or both of the amino acid functions (NH2 and/or CO2H). Sulfur-containing trifunctional amino acids were obtained in good to excellent yields (64-100%). The solvent used for the reaction is critical. Optimal results were obtained when both the unsaturated amino acid and RSH dissolve completely in the medium (dioxane/water or methanol/water are good solvent systems). The scope of the reaction includes alpha-substituted alpha-allylglycine and derivatives as well as beta-substituted beta-allyl-beta-ammo alcohols. In the case of optically active alpha-allylglycine derivatives, radical addition is accompanied by a small amount of racemization, the amount depending on the type of protection and R-S-H. The products are easily optically enriched by crystallization. Addition of sulfur-based radicals to alpha-allylglycine is believed to be an example of a general method for synthesizing optically active trifunctional amino acids from unsaturated amino acids.

A chemoenzymatic approach to the synthesis of functionalized α-methyl α-substituted amino acids is detailed. This involves amidase-mediated enzymatic resolution of α-methyl α-substituted side-chain ω-unsaturated amino acids followed by functionalization via cross-metathesis.

α,α-Disubstituted α-amino acid amides were prepared in 17–86% chemical yield by the phase-transfer catalyzed alkylation of N-benzylidene α-H aminoacid amides, followed by weak acidic hydrolysis of the Schiffbases.

The scope and limitations of the enzymatic resolution of alpha,alpha-disubstituted alpha-amino acid amides by an amino acid amidase from Mycobacterium neoaurum and of the corresponding ethyl esters with Pig liver esterase (PLE) have been studied. Moderate enantiomeric excesses were obtained with PLE, with only a narrow substrate specificity. Mycobacterium neoaurum on the contrary yields a broad range of S-alpha,alpha-disubstituted alpha-amino acids 1 and the corresponding R-amides 2.

By a chemo-enzymatic approach we carried out a large-scale synthesis of four enantiopure, sterically constrained, C-alpha-tetra-substituted alpha -amino acids, all characterized by a sidechain (CCdelta)-C-gamma double bond. By using one of them (L-Mag), we prepared an N-alpha-protected tetrapeptide benzylamide which was shown to adopt a beta -turn conformation and to efficiently undergo ring-closing olefin metathesis.
