Chiral N-phosphonyl imine chemistry: Asymmetric synthesis of α,β-diamino esters by reacting phosphonyl imines with glycine enolates
摘要:
Chiral phosphonyl imines attached with N-isopropyl protection group were found to react with lithium glycine enolates under convenient conditions to give alpha,beta-diamino esters. Thirteen examples have been examined in good to excellent chemical yields (85-97%) diastereoselectivity (up to 99% de). By treating with HBr at room temperature, the chiral auxiliary can be readily removed and recycled. The absolute structure has been unambiguously determined by converting a product to a known sample.
