PREPARATION OF ACYCLIC N-ACYL-N,O-ACETALS BY DECARBOXYLATION OF N-PROTECTED ALPHA-AMINO-ACIDS AND STUDIES OF ASYMMETRIC AMIDOALKYLATION WITH TRIMETHYLSILYL CYANIDE

Oxidative decarboxylation of N-acyl-alpha-amino acids with lead tetra-acetate followed by treatment with methanol provides a facile method for preparation of acyclic N-acyl-N,O-acetals, which can be used in asymmetric alpha-amidoalkylation reactions using trimethylsilyl cyanide as nucleophile.
