Novel alpha-substituted beta-amino diesters from acylnitroso-derived hetero-Diels-Alder cycloadducts

alpha-Methyl beta-amino diesters were synthesized in a simple three-step procedure starting from acylnitroso-derived Diels-Alder adducts of cyclopentadiene, Treatment of the cycloadducts with Copper catalyst-modified methylmagnesium bromide gave anti-1,2-cyclopentenyl hydroxamic acids. Reduction of...

Summary:alpha-Methyl beta-amino diesters were synthesized in a simple three-step procedure starting from acylnitroso-derived Diels-Alder adducts of cyclopentadiene, Treatment of the cycloadducts with Copper catalyst-modified methylmagnesium bromide gave anti-1,2-cyclopentenyl hydroxamic acids. Reduction of the hydroxmate N-O bond with titanium(III) chloride followed by ozonolytic cleavage of the cyclopentenyl olefin provided the desired alpha-methyl beta-amino diesters.
