Convenient Synthetic Route to an Enantiomerically Pure FMOC α-Amino Acid
摘要:
A strategy for the facile alpha-amination of carboxylic acid menthyl esters is described. The resulting diastereomers, readily separable, can be individually carried on to each enantiomer of the FMOC alpha-amino acid. A variety of unnatural side chains were compatible with this approach. The menthyl ester was easily removed from the FMOC alpha-amino acid without racermization.
