Title: Asymmetric Mannich reactions with in situ generation of carbamate-protected imines by an organic catalyst. Author: Song J, Shih HW, Deng L. Journal: Org Lett; 2007 Feb 15; 9(4):603-6. PubMed ID: 17256945. Abstract: The instability of carbamate-protected alkyl imines has greatly hampered the development of catalytic asymmetric Mannich reactions suitable for the synthesis of optically active carbamate-protected chiral alkyl amines. A highly enantioselective Mannich reaction with in situ generation of carbamate-protected imines from stable alpha-amido sulfones catalyzed by an organic catalyst was developed. This reaction provides a concise and highly enantioselective route converting aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes into optically active aryl and alkyl beta-amino acids.
