## Abstract 4‐(Dicyanomethylene)‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐2‐pyrazoline‐5‐one (1) readily reacts with α‐amino acids and their esters by Michael addition and subsequent elimination of HCN to the adducts 2a–k. One of these, 2i (obtained from methyl glycinate), adds stereoselectively to __N__‐phenylmaleimide

Abstract
The reaction of 2,4‐pentanedione (1) with (R)‐(—)‐2‐phenylglycine methyl ester (2), (R)‐(—)‐2‐phenylglycinol (3) and the proteinogenic amino acids (2__S__,3__R__)‐(—)‐2‐amino‐3‐hydroxybutyric acid (L‐threonine) (4) and (R)‐(—)‐2‐amino‐3‐mercaptopropionic acid (L‐cysteine) (5) methyl esters was investigated. The corresponding enamines 6, 7 and 8 were isolated and characterized spectroscopically whereas 9, which is unstable, was transformed in situ into 13. Treatment of 7, 8 and 9 with boron trifluoride etherate afforded the new [1,4]oxazepines 10, 11 and [1,4]thiazepine (12) as their BF~3~O^−^ salts. The structures of the enamines and their corresponding seven‐membered heterocycles were assessed by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. Variable‐temperature experiments revealed different molecular mobility behavior among these heterocycles. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
