Practical Preparation of Z-α-(N-Acetylamino)- and Z-α-(N-Benzoylamino)-α,β-unsaturated Acids

An efficient two-step synthetic procedure for the preparation of numerous variations of N-protected α,β-unsaturated α-amino acids and their corresponding esters from N-protected glycine and either aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes was developed. The reaction involved cyclization of the N-protected gly...

Description
Summary:An efficient two-step synthetic procedure for the preparation of numerous variations of N-protected α,β-unsaturated α-amino acids and their corresponding esters from N-protected glycine and either aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes was developed. The reaction involved cyclization of the N-protected glycine into oxazolone, condensation with the aldehyde, and ring opening with a base.
