摘要
The beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acids (S,S)-allo-threonine, (S,S)-beta-hydroxyleucine and a range of aryl substituted (S,S)-beta-hydroxyphenylalanines were prepared from the corresponding enantiopure anti-alpha-hydroxy-beta amino esters via a rearrangement protocol, which proceeds via the intermediacy of the corresponding aziridinium ions. The starting anti-alpha-hydroxy-beta-amino esters were prepared in >99:1 dr using our diastereoselective aminohydroxylation procedure, whereby conjugate addition of lithium (R)-N-benzyl-N-(alpha-methylbenzyl)amide to an alpha,beta-unsaturated ester is followed by oxidation of the resultant enolate with (-)-camphorsulfonyloxaziridine. Subsequent activation of the hydroxyl group within the anti-alpha-hydroxy-beta-amino esters promoted aziridinium ion formation [which proceeds with inversion of configuration at C(2)], and regioselective ring-opening of the intermediate aziridinium ions with H2O [which proceeds with inversion of configuration at C(3)] gave the corresponding anti-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino esters as single diastereoisomers (>99:1 dr). Deprotection of these substrates via sequential hydrogenolysis and ester hydrolysis gave the corresponding beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acids in good yield and high diastereoisomeric and enantiomeric purity.
