Popis: | A practical synthesis of both enantiomers of unnatural phenylalanine derivatives by using two pseudoenantiomeric phase transfer catalysts is described. Through asymmetric α-alkylation of glycine Schiff base with substituted benzyl bromides and 1-(bromomethyl)naphthalene under the catalysis of O-allyl-N-(9-anthracenmethyl) cinchoninium bromide (1f) and O-allyl-N-(9-anthracenylmethyl)cinchonidium bromide (1i), respectively, a series of both (R)- and (S)-enantiomers of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives were obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivity. The synthetic method is simple and scalable, and the stereochemistry of the products is fully predictable and controlled: the cinchonine-type phase transfer catalyst 1f resulted in (R)-α-amino acid derivatives, and the cinchonidine-type phase transfer catalyst 1i afforded (S)-α-amino acid derivatives. |
