Item Synthesis of chiral N-phosphinyl α-imino esters and their application in asymmetric synthesis of α-amino esters by reduction(2014) Xiong, Yiwen; Mei, Haibo; Wu, Lingmin; Han, Jianlin; Pan, Yi; Li, Guigen (TTU)A variety of chiral N-phosphinyl a-imino esters have been synthesized for the first time from ketoesters and phosphinylamide, which were then reduced by L-selectride to give the corresponding N-phosphinyl-protected a-amino esters. The reduction proceeded very well with excellent chemical yields (88-98%) as well as high diastereoselectivities (96:4 to 99:1). Some of these products could be obtained without column chromatography and recrystallization. The chiral phosphinyl auxiliary could be easily cleaved under acidic conditions. © 2014 Xiong et al; licensee Beilstein-Institut.
