Phosphinamide-Directed Benzylic Lithiation. Application to the Synthesis of Peptide Building Blocks
2008
N-Benzyldiphenylphosphinamides are deprotonated at the NCα position diastereospecifically upon treatment with t-BuLi in diethyl ether at low temperature. The reaction of the anions with alkyl, acyl, and tin halides, aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, and Michael acceptors allowed installation of a variety of functional groups into the benzylic arm in excellent yields. Cleavage of the P−N linkage affords 1,2-amino alcohols and α-, β-, and γ-amino acids.
