Asymmetric Synthesis of α‐Allenylglycines

Abstract
The coupling of the homocuprate of the bislactim ether of cyclo‐(‐L‐Val‐Gly‐) (9) with primary propargyl halides produces the allenyl‐substituted bislactim ethers 11 in a highly diastereoselective manner, whereas the alkylation of the lithiated bislactim ether of cyclo‐(‐L‐Val‐Gly‐) yields the propargyl‐substituted bislactim ethers 12. Subsequent hydrolysisaffords, after protection of the amino group, the methyl α‐allenylglycinates 15, the α‐allenylglycines 16, and the methyl α‐propargylglycinates 17. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
