A new, practical and very convenient stereocontrolled synthesis of (S)-2',6'-dimethyltyrosine [(S)-Dmt] 4 was accomplished in a good yield, Starting from the chiral synthon 1.4-N,N-[(S)-phenylethyl]-piperazine-2,5-dione 1. The procedure, which is an extension Of our original strategy and occurs with a high level of stereoselectivity (>98%), is simple and inexpensive allowing LIS to prepare the unnatural alpha-aminoacid (S)-Dmt also on a multi-gram scale.
