A nickel-catalyzed, multicomponent regio- and enantioselective coupling via sequential hydroformylation and carbonylation from readily available starting materials has been developed. This modular multicomponent hydrofunctionalization strategy enables the straightforward reductive hydrocarbonylation of a broad range of unactivated alkenes to produce a wide variety of unsymmetrical dialkyl ketones bearing a functionalized α-stereocenter, including enantioenriched chiral α-aryl ketones and α-amino ketones. It uses chiral bisoxazoline as a ligand, silane as a reductant, chloroformate as a safe CO source, and a racemic secondary benzyl chloride or an N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) ester of a protected α-amino acid as the alkylation reagent. The benign nature of this process renders this method suitable for late-stage functionalization of complex molecules.
Asymmetric construction of dihydrobenzofuran-2,5-dione derivatives via desymmetrization of p-quinols with azlactones

The desymmetrization of p-quinols through a chiral bisguanidinium hemisalt catalyzed enantioselective Michael addition/lactonization cascade reaction with azlactones was reported. 3-Amino-benzofuran-2,5-diones containing a chiral amino acid residue were achieved with up to 99% ee and >19?:?1 dr. An exploration of the structure of the catalyst bisguanidinium was undertaken, revealing a bifunctional catalytic model.
Reactivity of α-Amino Acids in the Reaction with Esters in Aqueous–1,4-Dioxane Media
Kochetova,Kustova,Kuritsyn
, p. 80 - 85 (2018/03/09)
The kinetics of the reaction of a series of α-amino acids with 4-nitrophenyl acetate, 4-nitrophenyl benzoate, and 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl benzoate in aqueous 1,4-dioxane medium has been studied. Kinetics of the reactions involving 4-nitrophenyl acetate and 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl benzoate has complied with the Br?nsted dependence and revealed linear correlation between rate constant logarithm and the energy difference of the frontier orbitals of α-amino acids anions.
