Sodium borohydride: A versatile reagent in the reductive N-monoalkylation of α-amino acids and α-amino methyl esters
Verardo, Giancarlo,Geatti, Paola,Pol, Elena,Giumanini, Angelo G.
, p. 779 - 788 (2002)
α-Amino acids and α-amino methyl esters are easily converted to their N-monoalkyl derivatives by a reductive condensation reaction using several carbonyl compounds in the presence of sodium borohydride. This reducing agent has shown a wide versatility with minor but essential procedural variations. The reaction allows the α-monodeuterium labeling of the new N-substituent by use of sodium borodeuteride.
Investigation into the enantioselective protonation of enolate Schiff bases with (R)-pantolactone
Calmes, Monique,Glot, Christele,Martinez, Jean
, p. 49 - 52 (2007/10/03)
The effect of several factors on the enantioselective protonation of the enolates of α-amino acid derivatives with (R)-pantolactone were studied. The highest stereoselectivity (74-76% e.e.) was generally observed by associating lithium chloride with LHMDS
