Jl. Vicario et al., Asymmetric synthesis of arylglycine amino acids using (S,S)-(+)-pseudoephedrine derived amides, TETRAHEDR L, 40(39), 1999, pp. 7123-7126
Arylglycine aminoacids were obtained in good yields and with enantiomeric e
xcesses higher than 99% by using an asymmetric amination reaction protocol
on (S,S)-(+)-pseudoephedrine based arylacetamide enolates with di-tert-buty
lazodicarboxylate. Subsequent hydrazinolysis and hydrolysis yielded the tar
get aminoacids. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights rese
