Synthetic methods of unnatural α-amino acids have always been the focus of extensive research due to their significant bioactivities. However, convenient transition-metal-free catalyzed methods are still in demand. Herein, we report a novel strategy for the construction of an unnatural α-amino acid skeleton via intramolecular rearrangement of carbamates, which are readily available from amines and their
非天然α-氨基酸的合成方法因其重要的生物活性一直是广泛研究的焦点。然而,仍然需要方便的无过渡金属催化方法。在此,我们报告了一种通过氨基甲酸酯的分子内重排构建非天然 α-氨基酸骨架的新策略,氨基甲酸酯很容易从胺及其常见的保护基中获得。即使在克级反应中,这种重排也能以高达 98% 的收率提供多种氨基酯产品。通过实验和理论计算对反应机理进行了详细研究。来自 2-吡啶基的复合物诱导邻近效应 (CIPE) 被证明对于这种转化是必不可少的。
