J. Martin et al., ENANTIOSELECTIVE PROTONATION OF AMIDE ENOLATES DERIVED FROM PIPERIDINE-2-CARBOXYLIC ACID, Tetrahedron letters, 38(41), 1997, pp. 7181-7182
Enantioselective protonation was applied on amide enolates 1a and 2a,
derived from piperidine-2-carboxylic acid. High enantioselectivity was
obtained with diamine (+)-3, as chiral source, and in presence of LiB
r. Up to 95+/-1% ee for amide 1 and >99% for amide 2 were reached. Mor
eover, (S)-1 and (R)-1 were obtained with 89% and 93% ee using (+) and
(-) ephedrine respectively. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
