Oxidation of the title enolate by enantiopure (camphorylsulfonyl)oxaziridines in THF afforded α-hydroxyester with 53–73% ee, but the product from the solid state reactions was racemic. The results suggest that the enolate exists and reacts as an aggregate in the solid state reactions.
Enantiomeric Inclusion of α-Hydroxy Esters by (<i>R</i>)-(1-Naphthyl)glycyl-(<i>R</i>)-phenylglycine and the Crystal Structures of the Inclusion Cavities
A simple dipeptide, (R)-(l-naphthyl)glycyl-(R)-phenylglycine [(R,R)-1], formed inclusion compounds with several alpha-hydroxy esters (2) with high enantioselectivity. By crystallization of a mixture of the dipeptide [(R,R)-1] and racemic 2a [MeCH(OH)COOMe] from methanol, asymmetric recognition occurred to give an inclusion compound that contains the S form of 2a in 89% ee: X-ray crystallographic study of the inclusion compound elucidated that the dipeptide molecules arrange in a "folded antiparallel" beta-sheetlike structure to accommodate the alpha-hydroxy ester in the pocket-type cavity surrounded by naphthyl and phenyl groups on the sheet. Similarly, 2b [MeCH(OH)COOEt] and 2f [dihydro-3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-2(3H)-furanone] were included with high enantioselectivity of the S form. When bulkier 2l [t-BuCH(OH)COOMe] was used as a guest molecule, the arrangement of dipeptide molecules changed to an "extended antiparallel" mode, where the naphthyl and phenyl groups arranged in a "parallel stacked and displaced" mode and a channel-type cavity was constructed. The guest molecules were accommodated via hydrogen bonding in the channel-type cavity with high enantioselectivity of the S form (82% ee). In the case of 2k [i-PrCH(OH)COOMe], optically pure (S)-2k formed the dipeptide sheet with the "folded antiparallel" structure by cocrystallization with (R,R)-1, while the "extended antiparallel" structure appeared in the inclusion of racemic 2k.
