All the four individual isomers of R-methylphenylalanine have been synthesized in very high optical purities by utilizing in part the chiral imide enolate bromination methodology of Evans and co-workers. Substitution of the diastereotopic X-hydrogens of many a-amino acids provides inprinciple, an a

We have developed methods for the synthesis of the four optically pure isomers of B-methyltryptophan with the 2-mesitylenesulfonyl indole protecting group for peptide synthesis. Starting from 3-indoleacrylic acid, the Bmethyl function was generated by a chiral auxiliary-directed asymmetric conjugate
B-Amino acids2) are of great current interest because of their naturally occurring as the component of biologically active peptide antibiotics and also their structual relationship to the B-lactam, one of the most biologically important functional groups. We wish to describe here the catalytic asym
The synthesis of all four individual isomers of 3-methyl-3-(2'-naphthyl)analine was accomplished using asymmetric conjugate 1 A-addition followed by direct or indirect azidation using an Evans-type chiral auxiliary (4-phenyl-2-oxazolidinone).
