Synthesis of a chiral spiranic aminochroman derivative from L-proline

Stereoselective Synthesis of Quaternary Proline Analogues

This review describes available methods for the diastereoselective and asymmetric synthesis of quaternary prolines. The focus is on the preparation of alpha-functionalized prolines with the pyrrolidine moiety not embedded in a polycyclic frame. The diverse synthetic approaches are classified according to the bond which is formed to complete the quaternary skeleton.

Enantioselective synthesis of 2- and 3-substituted 2,3-dihydro[1,4]dioxino[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives and enantiomeric purity control by capillary electrophoresis

A rapid and simple procedure for enantioselective preparation of 2- and 3-substituted 2,3-dihydro[1,4]dioxino[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives (A and B, respectively) is described. The enantiomeric purity of each isomer was determined by capillary electrophoresis using a dual-cyclodextrin system (S-beta-CD/beta-CD) dissolved in formic acid-ammonia buffer (pH 4, ionic strength 50 mM).

Synthesis of 3-Aminochroman Derivatives by Radical Cyclization

[reaction: see text] Enantiomerically pure 5-acetyl-3-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran and methyl 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-5-carboxylate were successfully synthesized starting from d- or l-serine. The formation of the benzopyran ring involved a radical cyclization step. The enantiomeric purities of the final aminochroman derivatives were determined by capillary electrophoresis using beta-cyclodextrins as a chiral selector.

Enantioselective synthesis of spirocyclic aminochroman derivatives according to the CN(R,S) strategy

Enantiomerically pure (3'R)- and (3'S)-3',4'-dihydrospiro[piperidine-2,3'(2'H)-benzopyran]s (R)-10 and (S)-10 were successfully synthesized according to the CN(R,S) methodology with the aim of serving as a pattern for the generation of related spirocyclic compounds. Two different synthetic pathways were studied starting from 2-cyano-6-phenyloxazolopiperidine (-)-2. One of them was selected and used for the preparation of amines (R)-17 and (S)-17 starting from (-)-2 and (+)-2, respectively. The enantiomeric purity of all final aminochroman derivatives was determinated by capillary electrophoresis using beta-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector.
