Diastereoselective and Enantioselective Synthesis of Unsymmetric β,β-Diaryl-α-Amino Acid Esters via Organocatalytic 1,6-Conjugate Addition of para-Quinone Methides
文摘
A novel strategy based on phase transfer catalysis for the diastereoselective and enantioselective direct assembly of unsymmetric β,β-diaryl-α-amino acid esters via 1,6-conjugate addition of para-quinone methides and glycine derivatives is described. This protocol also provides an alternative route to the synthetically interesting functionalized chiral tetrahydroisoquinoline and its analogues.
