The slurry was then transferred to a stainless steel autoclave under nitrogen and sealed. The autoclave was then heated to 50°C and pressurized to 500 psig with hydrogen. Analysis of a sample taken after 17 hours using HPLC confirmed that the reaction was complete giving 94% assay yield and 94% ee.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for the efficient preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivatives wherein the amino group is unprotected. The product chiral beta amino acid derivatives are useful in the asymmetric synthesis of biologically active molecules. The process comprises an enantioselective hydrogenation of an amine-unprotected prochiral beta-amino acrylic acid or derivative thereof in the presence of a rhodium metal precursor complexed with a chiral mono- or bisphosphine ligand.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to a process for the efficient preparation of enantiomerically enriched β-amino acid derivatives in which the amino group is unprotected. Chiral β-amino acid derivative products are frequent building blocks of drug candidates and can also be used in the asymmetric synthesis of other biologically active molecules. The process involves the enantioselective hydrogenation of amine-unprotected prochiral [beta]-aminoacrylic acid or derivatives thereof in the presence of a rhodium metal precursor complexed with a chiral mono- or diphosphine ligand. Background of the invention [0002] The invention provides a preparation marked with * An efficient method for enantiomerically enriched structural formula Iβ-amino acid derivatives on the carbon atom: [0003] [0004] in [0005] Z is OR 2 、SR 2 or NR 2 R 3 ; [0006] R 1 is C 1-8 Alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, aryl-C 1-2 Alkyl, or heteroaryl-C 1-2 alkyl; [0007] R 2 ...
