RESUMO
The one-pot MAC (Masked Acyl Cyanide) reaction is used to perform the tandem oxyhomologation reaction of N,N-dibenzyl-l-phenylalaninal and coupling with nitrogen nucleophiles to provide a wide selection of amide and peptide derivatives of (2S,3S)-allophenylnorstatin in generally good yields and with high anti selectivity, often with dr >98:2. The procedure works equally well with other selected N,N-dibenzyl α-amino aldehydes, and is used to achieve a very short synthesis of (2S,3S,S)-epibestatin.

The three-component reaction between a protected α-amino aldehyde, an alcohol and an α-silyloxymalononitrile provides an expedient access to protected α-hydroxy-ß-amino acid derivatives. The prototypical process, performed on N-Cbz-phenylalaninal, is known to proceed with syn diastereoselectivity. The present study demonstrates that the diastereoselectivity of the reaction can be inverted, using the rationale of a Felkin-Anh interaction model. Reactions performed on N,N-dibenzyl-L-phenylalaninal proceed with a high anti diastereoselectivity, providing a panel of synthetically useful ester derivatives of (2S,3S)-allophenylnorstatin. The procedure is exploited to accomplish one of the most efficient syntheses of the title compound to date, in 3 steps (66% yield) from N,N-dibenzyl-L-phenylalaninal.
RESUMO
Using Garner's aldehyde as a substrate, one-pot MAC hydroxyhomologation reactions proceeded in good yields and with anti selectivity for the first time (dr up to 9:1). The products were used to prepare a panel of protected derivatives of erythro-ß-hydroxyaspartic acid and erythro-ß-hydroxyasparagine as single enantiomers in a few steps.
RESUMO
A number of cyclic derivatives of 3-amino-2,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid are known in the literature but they are often prepared from other cyclic precursors. This study showed that the title compound too may serve as a convenient substrate for cyclization reactions. Using orthogonally-protected linear derivatives, regioselective cyclizations were performed, leading to original and highly-functionalized γ-lactones, oxazolidinones, oxazolines and aziridines. In these reactions a key role was played by the C3 nitrogen group function, while the C2 alcohol function showed no propensity for participation in cyclization reactions.
RESUMO
A modified version of the IMPACT heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) has allowed the characterization of an organosilane and a tetrasilylated yttrium complex. With the help of this sequence, an average gain in sensitivity close to 2 has been obtained compared with the standard HMBC experiment for disilanes as well as for yttrium complexes containing silylated ligands. This modified version of this long-range correlation experiment opens the way for following kinetics in the range of a fraction of a minute and to study by NMR low concentrated samples and low abundant nuclei.
