โฆ Synopsis
A catalytic deuteration of protected 3,4-dehydro-L-proline using RuCI2(PPh3) 3 followed by RuO~-oxidation gave a 3,4-dideuterated L-pyroglutamic acid derivative which is considered to be a promising precursor for various deuterated amino acids. The present study demonstrates a stereoselective reduction of the amide carbonyl moiety leading to L-proline derivatives in which all of the ring methylenes are stereoselectively labeled with deuterium.
