Enantio- and Diastereoselective Synthesis of (R,R)-β-Methoxytyrosine

The nonproteinogenic amino acid (2R,3R)-β-methoxytyrosine, a constituent of several cyclic depsipeptide natural products, was synthesized in protected form (8) from a readily available cinnamate ester in four steps and 62% overall yield with a greater than 28:1 er and 19:1 dr. This method provides a...

Zusammenfassung:The nonproteinogenic amino acid (2R,3R)-β-methoxytyrosine, a constituent of several cyclic depsipeptide natural products, was synthesized in protected form (8) from a readily available cinnamate ester in four steps and 62% overall yield with a greater than 28:1 er and 19:1 dr. This method provides a highly efficient, enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of an important amino acid.
