An Organocatalyzed Enantioselective Synthesis of (2S,3R,4S)-4-Hydroxyisoleucine and Its Stereoisomers
摘要:
A concise enantioselective total synthesis of (2S,3/2,45)-4-hydroxyisoleucine and its stereoisomers is described. A key feature of this protocol is a catalytic enantioselective mannich reaction that is either anti- or syn-selective as genesis of chirality.

The invention relates to 4-hydroxyisoleucine, isomers, analogs, lactones, salts, and prodrugs thereof, to processes for their preparation, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of those compounds in the prevention and treatment of obesity and related syndromes.
A panel of microorganisms was screened for selective reduction ability towards a racemic mixture of prochiral 2-amino-3-methyl-4-ketopentanoate (rac-AMKP). Several of the microorganisms tested produced greater than 0.5 mM 4-hydroxyisoleucine (HIL) from rac-AMKP, and the stereoselectivity of HIL formation was found to depend on the taxonomic category to which the microorganism belonged.
