Stereoselective Intramolecular Cyclization of Allyl and Homoallyl Benzamide via π-Allylpalladium Complex Catalyzed by Pd(0)
摘要:
The transformation of acyclic allylic benzamides 4 and homoallylic benzamides 12 to vinyl oxazolines 3 is achieved in the presence of base by the catalysis of Pd(0) in high yield and with high diastereoselectivity. Especially, in the case of homoallylic benzamides 12, trans-oxazolines 3 are formed exclusively or predominantly over cis-oxazolines 8, irrespective of the composition of their stereoisomers. The reaction is believed to proceed via the same pi-allylpalladium complex that arises from either primary or secondary allylic acetates. We applied this method to the syntheses of beta-amino-alpha-hydroxy acids 1 and gamma-amino-beta-hydroxy acids 2, conveniently protected as oxazoline.
Irreversible inhibitions of serine proteases by peptidyl allylic halide derivatives
摘要:
Peptidyl 4-amino-5-phenyl-2-pentenyl bromide (7a, 9a, 10a) and chloride derivatives (7b, 9b, 10b) were found to be active-site directed irreversible inhibitors of alpha-chymotrypsin but did not show any irreversible inhibitory activity toward porcine pancreatic elastase.
