(S)- or (R)-3-(E-enoyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones: Ideal Michael acceptors to afford a virtually complete control of simple and face diastereoselectivity in addition reactions with glycine derivatives

TL;DR: Enantiomerically pure (S)- or (R)-3-(E-enoyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones were found to serve as ideal Michael acceptors in addition reactions with achiral Ni(II) complexes of glycine Schiff bases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent approaches for asymmetric synthesis of α-amino acids via homologation of Ni(II) complexes

TL;DR: This review article critically discusses examples of asymmetric synthesis of tailor-made α-amino acids via homologation of Ni(II) complexes of glycine and alanine Schiff bases, reported in the literature from 2013 through the end of 2016.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward design of a practical methodology for stereocontrolled synthesis of χ-constrained pyroglutamic acids and related compounds. Virtually complete control of simple diastereoselectivity in the Michael addition reactions of glycine Ni(II) complexes with N-(enoyl)oxazolidinones

TL;DR: A Ni(II) complex of the Schiff base of glycine with o-[N-α-picolylamino]benzophenone or -acetophenone as a nucleophilic glycine equivalent, and N-trans-enoyloxazolidinones, as a derivative of an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid, were found to be the substrates of choice in the corresponding Michael addition reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of optically pure (R)- and (S)-α-trifluoromethyl-alanine

TL;DR: In this paper, the absolute configuration of two synthetic intermediates (2S,RS)-6a and (2R,RS-6c) was determined by X-ray analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Michael addition reactions between chiral Ni(II) complex of glycine and 3-(trans-enoyl)oxazolidin-2-ones. A case of electron donor-acceptor attractive interaction-controlled face diastereoselectivity.

TL;DR: This study has demonstrated that the readily available and inexpensive 3-(trans-3'-alkyl/arylpropenoyl)oxazolidin-2-ones, featuring high electrophilicity and conformational homogeneity, are synthetically superior Michael acceptors over the conventionally used alkyl enoylates, allowing for a remarkable improvement in reactivity and diastereoselectivity.
