Umpolung Reactivity of Difluoroenol Silyl Ethers with Amines and Amino Alcohols. Application to the Synthesis of Enantiopure α-Difluoromethyl Amines and Amino Acids
摘要:
Difluoroenol silyl ethers, produced in situ from acylsilanes and CF3TMS, react as electrophiles with amines to give difluoroimines, via the corresponding hemiaminal adduct, as evidenced by F-19 NMR spectroscopy. Reaction with (R)-phenylglycinol led to 2-difluoromethyloxazolidines. After separation of the diastereomers, reduction with LAH and Strecker-type synthesis gave enantiopure alpha-difluoromethy-lamines and alpha-difluoromethyl-alpha-amino acids, respectively.
