Asymmetric synthesis of beta2-amino acids: 2-substituted-3-aminopropanoic acids from N-acryloyl SuperQuat derivatives.

Conjugate addition of lithium dibenzylamide to (S)-N(3)-acryloyl-4-isopropyl-5,5-dimethyloxazolidin-2-one (derived from l-valine) and alkylation of the resultant lithium beta-amino enolate provides, after deprotection, a range of (S)-2-alkyl-3-aminopropanoic acids in good yield and high ee. Alternat...
