The preparation of enantiomerically pure N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl,N-methylamino acids by N-methylation of the parent amino acid derivatives using sodium hydride and methyl iodide in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature is described for neutral amino acids including O-benzyl-protected threonine and tyrosine. Methylation of the O-benzylserine derivative under these conditions gives the N-methyldehydroalanine derivative. The β-elimination is completely suppressed, giving the corresponding N-methylserine derivative when the reaction is carried out at 5 °C. Other related data on N-methylation and N-methylamino acid derivatives are presented.

AbstractCoupling reactions of amines and alcohols are of central importance for applications in chemistry and biology. These transformations typically involve the use of a reagent, activated as an electrophile, onto which nucleophile coupling results in the formation of a carbon-nitrogen or a carbon–oxygen bond. Several promising reagents and procedures have been developed to achieve these bond forming processes in high yields with excellent stereocontrol, but few offer direct coupling without the intervention of a catalyst. Herein, we report the synthesis of chiral donor–acceptor azetines by highly enantioselective [3 + 1]-cycloaddition of enoldiazoacetates with aza-ylides and their selective coupling with nitrogen and oxygen nucleophiles via 3-azetidinones to form amino acid derivatives, including those of peptides and natural products. The overall process is general for a broad spectrum of nucleophiles, has a high degree of electronic and steric selectivity, and retains the enantiopurity of the original azetine.
