Single-Flask Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Amino Acid Esters by Organocatalysis

[Image: see text] An operationally simple Knoevenagel condensation/asymmetric epoxidation/domino ring-opening esterification (DROE) approach has been disclosed to successfully access a good variety of (R)- and (S)-α-arylglycine esters from commercially available aldehydes, phenylsulfonyl acetonitril...

description [Image: see text] An operationally simple Knoevenagel condensation/asymmetric epoxidation/domino ring-opening esterification (DROE) approach has been disclosed to successfully access a good variety of (R)- and (S)-α-arylglycine esters from commercially available aldehydes, phenylsulfonyl acetonitrile, cumyl hydroperoxide, anilines, and readily available Cinchona alkaloid-based catalysts using a single solvent and reaction vessel. DFT calculations performed on the key asymmetric epoxidation showed the importance of cooperative H-bonding interactions in affecting the stereocontrol.
