Schemes for the synthesis of 5,5'-dihydroxyleucine 3 and its 4-fluoro analog 7 involving the condensation of a suitable 'aminoacid moiety' with 2,2-dimethyl-5-iodomethyl-1,3-dioxane 15D or its fluoro analog 27A were tested.The anion of the ethyl N-diphenylmethylene-glycinate 25 gave better yields of 3 than the classical anion of diethyl acetamidomalonate.This strategy could not be successfully applied to the synthesis of 7, which could be prepared by reduction of a suitably protected 4-fluoro-4-carboxyglutamate with BMS.
