Chiral phase-transfer catalysts (S)-1a, (S)-1b, and (S)-2 with conformationally fixed biphenyl cores were conveniently prepared from the known, easily available (S)-6,6′-dimethylbiphenyl-2,2′-diol 3 and (S)-4,5,6,4′,5′,6′-hexamethoxybiphenyl-2,2′-dicarboxylic acid 14, respectively, in five steps. The catalysts, (S)-1a and (S)-1b are readily applicable to asymmetric alkylation of N-(diphenylmethylene)glycine
具有构象固定的联苯核的手性相转移催化剂(S)-1a,(S)-1b和(S)-2由已知的,易于获得的(S)-6,6'-二甲基联苯-2, 2'-二醇3和(S)-4,5,6,4',5',6'-六甲氧基联苯-2,2'-二羧酸14分别在五个步骤中。催化剂(S)-1a和(S)-1b易于用于N-(二苯基亚甲基)甘氨酸叔丁基的不对称烷基化丁酯具有出色的对映选择性。特别地,发现催化剂(S)-1b对对映选择性表现出独特的温度影响,并且甘氨酸衍生物在室温下的不对称烷基化比在0℃下具有更高的对映体过量。此外,催化剂(S)-2在N-(二苯基亚甲基)甘氨酸叔丁酯和N-(对氯苯基亚甲基)丙氨酸叔丁酯的不对称烷基化反应中表现出较高的催化性能(0.01-1 mol%)。丁酯与现有的手性相转移催化剂相比,从而可以实现通用且有用的程序,用于高度实用的对映选择性合成结构多样的天然和非天然α-烷基-α-氨基酸以及α,α-二烷基- α
