P. Arya et al., REMOTE ASYMMETRIC INDUCTION - SYNTHESIS OF C-LINKED ALPHA-GALACTOSERINE AND HOMOSERINE DERIVATIVES BY ELECTROPHILIC AMINATION, Tetrahedron letters, 39(34), 1998, pp. 6131-6134
A high diastereoselectivity (98%) for electrophilic amination of compo
und 9 using di-t-butyl azodicarboxyl ester as an electrophile was achi
eved. A similar reaction with compound 13 having achiral oxazolidinone
was studied to examine 1,4-remote asymmetric induction. In the latter
, a selectivity of 6.5:1 demonstrated the effect of alpha-galactosyl m
oiety, responsible for inducing the induction from the remote site. (C
