β¦ Synopsis
The first asymmetric synthesis of (2S)-, and (2R)-amino-3,3-dimethoxypropanoic acid (a-formylglycine dimethylacetal) has been achieved in two steps and 91% overall yield. The key step involved the quenching of a chiral glycine titanium enolate with trimethyl orthoformate.

3-Amino-2-hydroxydecanoic acid (AHDA) is a novel amino acid which has been suggested as the Nterminal component of the recently isolated angiotensin-converting "enzyme inhibitor microginin. The naturally occurring amino acid was found to possess syn relative stereochemistry and (2S,3R) absolute ster
Taking advantage of the high functionality of an enantiopure protected syn-2R-amino-l,3,4-triol derivative, easily available on a multigram scale from Disoascorbic acid, several biologically active compounds have been synthesized such as the (2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxydecanoic acid (AHDA), the N-termi
The synthesis of 3-prolinomethionine can be easily achieved in a diastereoselective and enantioselective way via zinc-enolate cyclisation. After transmetallation by CuCN.2LiCI, the zinc--copper derivative was reacted with S-methyl methanesulfonothioate leading in a "one-pot" procedure, to N-(0t-meth
The asymmetric synthesis of both cis and trans 3-prolinoglutamic acids can be easily achieved in a diastereoselective and enantioselective way via the amino-zinc-enolate cyclisation.
