RESUMO

Seven novel a-aminoacids precursors were prepared by the alkylation reaction of ethyl acetamidocyanoacetate 112 using bromohexane, benzyl chloride, allyl bromide, 9-(chloro-methyl)antracene, 3-nitrobenzyl bromide, 4-nitrobenzyl bromide, 4-metoxibenzyl bromide and 2-methyl-naphtyl bromide as alkylating agents via Phase Transfer Catalysis (PTC). These reaction were performed at 70oC using benzyltributyl ammonium chloride as catalyst. After 5h, compounds 113a-h were obtained in moderated to good yields (24-74%), Scheme I. The alkylation reaction of ethyl acetamidocyanoacetate 112 with benzyl chloride was carried out using chiral catalysts phase transfer as: Nbenzylmethylephedrinium bromide (31a), (8R,9S)-N-9-methylantracenylcinchonidinium chloride (34b), (8S,9R)-N-9-methylantracenylquininium chloride (34a), (8R,9S)-Nbenzylmethylcinchonidinium chloride (32b), N-(benzilmethyl)-O-allylephedrinium bromide (31g), (8S,9R)-N-benzylmethylcinchoninium chloride (33b), N-(9-methylantracenyl)-O-allyl-cinchonidinium bromide (34e) and (8R,9S)-N-9-methylantracenylcinchoninium chloride (34d). No asymmetric induction was observed using the aforementioned catalysts for the production of a-aminoacid optically active precursor 113b. Although no asymmetric induction was observed, good yields (83%) were obtained with catalysts 34e and 34d.Based on the data obtained from molecular modeling program Gaussian 03, it was possible to propose a model for the enolate-catalyst pair, that is in accordance with the lack of asymmetric induction for the reactions performed in the presence of the chiral catalysts. a-aminoacids 114 were obtained from precursors 113 by acid hydrolysis with moderate to good yields (68-93%), (Scheme II).
