Highly Anti-Selective One-Pot Multicomponent Synthesis of Mannich-Type N-Acylated β-Amino Acid Derivatives by Copper or Sodium Salt Catalysis

A stereo-defined process has been developed for the synthesis of Mannich-type products using readily available copper sulfate or sodium chloride as catalyst. Good to excellent diastereoselectivity has been achieved for a broad array of substrates. The observed diastereoselectivity is explained on th...

Description
Summary:A stereo-defined process has been developed for the synthesis of Mannich-type products using readily available copper sulfate or sodium chloride as catalyst. Good to excellent diastereoselectivity has been achieved for a broad array of substrates. The observed diastereoselectivity is explained on the basis of the steric interaction between the acyloxy group of the aldehyde carbon and the more hindered α-substituted enolate anion. This steric interaction helps the addition to take place through the less-hindered face to produce the anti-isomers predominantly. Supplemental materials are available for this article.
