Enantioselective synthesis of (2S,2′R)-erythro-methylphenidate
摘要:
A new approach towards the enantioselective synthesis of (2S,2'R)-erythro-methylphenidate (1) is described. The key step in the synthesis utilizes Evans' 4-substituted-2-oxazolidinone chiral auxiliary to control the diastereofacial selectivity in the hydrogenation of enamine intermediate 6, yielding the hydrogenated product 7 with excellent diastereoselectivity. Methanolysis of 7 afforded 1 with excellent enantiopurity. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
