A protocol for stereoselective C-radical addition to a chiral glyoxylate-derived sulfinyl imine was developed through visible light-promoted photoredox catalysis, providing a convenient method for the synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids. The developed protocol allows the use of ubiquitous carboxylic acids as radical precursors without prior derivatization. The protocol utilizes near-stoichiometric amounts of the imine and the acid radical precursor in combination with a catalytic amount of an organic acridinium-based photocatalyst. The mechanism for the developed transformation is discussed and the stereodetermining radical addition step was studied by the DFT calculations.

N-Methyl β-amino acids are potentially useful amino acid derivatives for incorporation in lead peptide therapeutics. The syntheses of five such compounds are presented. Their synthesis via 6-oxazinanones was low yielding. Alternatively, reductive cleavage of a 5-oxazolidinone gave the N-methyl α-amino acid, which was then homologated via an Arndt–Eistert procedure in high yield to give the N-methyl β-amino acid.
