The racemization rate of N- [p-nitrobenzylidene] -α-amino acid esters was found to be even thousand-fold smaller than that of the azlactones of N-acyl-α-amino acids. t-Butyl esters of N-[p- nitrobenzylidene]-α-amino acids are much more stable to racemization as the correspondent methyl esters.

SUMMARYL-Amino acid esters, such as L-Leu-OMe, kill Leishmania amazonensis amastigotes by a mechanism which appears to involve ester hydrolysis by cysteine proteinases located in the parasite megasomes. We have examined the killing of isolated amastigotes by L-dipeptide esters and derived some structure-activity correlations. Toxicity of the compounds for the parasites was measured by a tetrazolium (MTT) reduction assay. The results show that active dipeptide esters contained at least I hydrophobic amino acid (Leu, Ile, Val, Phe or Trp). The activity of homodipeptide methyl esters depended on the nature of the amino acid, as indicated by the following series: Phe-Phe-OMe < Val-Val-OMe < Leu-Leu-OMe < Trp-Trp-OMe < Ile-Ile-OMe. The nature of the amino acids in Leu-X-OMe and X-Leu-OMe was relatively unimportant when X was Phe, Trp or Val. However, when X was Ala or Gly, Leu-X-OMe was several-fold more active than X-Leu-OMe.

We describe the synthesis of rare coordination compounds of early transition metals with α-amino acids and α-amino acid esters, the unusual C–C dimerization ofl-proline, and the stabilization of reactive α-ammonium acylchloride cations.
