Asymmetric Synthesis of β-Amino-α-Hydroxy Acids through Lewis Acid-Mediated Addition of Ketene Acetal to Imines

Asymmetric synthesis of β-amino-α-hydroxy acids, key components of medicinally important molecules including Paclitaxel, KRI-1314, amastatin, and microginin, has been attained from the aldimine coupling of chiral imines N-alkylidene-(S)- or (R)-α-methylbenzylamine with (Z)-α-methoxyketene methyltrim...

Summary:Asymmetric synthesis of β-amino-α-hydroxy acids, key components of medicinally important molecules including Paclitaxel, KRI-1314, amastatin, and microginin, has been attained from the aldimine coupling of chiral imines N-alkylidene-(S)- or (R)-α-methylbenzylamine with (Z)-α-methoxyketene methyltrimethylsilyl acetal, followed by demethylation, hydrogenolysis, and hydrolysis.
