Synthesis of γ-, δ-, and ε-lactams by asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of N-(tert-butylsulfinyl)iminoesters

Highly enantiomerically enriched γ- and δ-lactams have been prepared by a simple and very efficient procedure that involves the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of N-(tert-butylsulfinyl)iminoesters followed by desulfinylation of the nitrogen atom and spo

A SIMPLE SYNTHETIC APPROACH TO Cbz-Phe-Ψ-(CH2)Gly-Pro-OMe AND RELATED PEPTIDE ISOSTERES

A new approach to ketomethylene and hydroxymethylene peptide isosteres has been developed which is simple, direct, and highly convergent.A key feature is construction of the central bond of a γ-keto ester by alkylation of a t-butyl β-keto ester with an α-bromo ester.
