Selective C-2 opening of 2,3-epoxyesters with HN3-amine system: A viable route to β-hydroxy-α-amino acids
摘要:
The combination of hydrogen azide with amines has proven to effect the C-2 opening of 2,3-epoxyester with high regioselectivity uniformly for trans-epoxyesters and depending on their structures for cis-2,3-epoxyesters.

Highly enantioselective catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturatedcarboxylic acid imidazolides and simple amides was developed. In the presence of 5–10 mol% of lanthanide–BINOL complexes, the reaction proceeded smoothly with high substrate generality. In particular, in the cases of α,β-unsaturated amides, there was nearly perfect enantioselectivity (>99% ee). The corresponding epoxides were
