  • Title: Enantiocontrolled synthesis of alpha-methyl amino acids via Bn2N-alpha-methylserine-beta-lactone.
    Author: Smith ND, Wohlrab AM, Goodman M.
    Journal: Org Lett; 2005 Jan 20; 7(2):255-8. PubMed ID: 15646971.
    Abstract:
    [Reaction: see text] Enantiocontrolled synthesis of alpha-methyl amino acids proceeds via the regioselective organocuprate opening of Bn2N-alpha-methylserine-beta-lactone. From this chiral intermediate, a wide variety of alpha-methyl amino acids and building blocks were synthesized in excellent yields.
