摘要
An alpha-methyl, non-natural amino acid (NNAA) building block equipped with an alkyl halide tail that could be readily transformed into an organozinc was prepared. This single organometallic was cross-coupled to an array of heterocyclic electrophiles using the Pd-PEPPSI-IHept(Cl) catalyst to produce a wide selection of optically pure alpha-methyl NNAAs. With these in hand, non-natural peptides are being produced for evaluation in a variety of therapeutic areas in drug discovery.
