Probing α-Amino Aldehydes as Weakly Acidic Pronucleophiles: Direct Access to Quaternary α-Amino Aldehydes by an Enantioselective Michael Addition Catalyzed by Bronsted Bases was written by Garcia-Urricelqui, Ane;de Cozar, Abel;Mielgo, Antonia;Palomo, Claudio. And the article was included in Chemistry – A European Journal in 2021.COA of Formula: C16H24N2O4 This article mentions the following:
The chem. of α-amino aldehydes was expanded beyond their limits by documenting the first direct α-alkylation of α-branched α-amino aldehydes with nitroolefins. The reaction produced densely functionalized products bearing up to two, quaternary and tertiary, vicinal stereocenters with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity. DFT modeling lead to the proposal that intramol. hydrogen bonding between the NH group and the carbonyl oxygen atom in the starting α-amino aldehyde was key for reaction stereocontrol. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (S)-tert-Butyl (1-(methoxy(methyl)amino)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl)carbamate (cas: 87694-53-9COA of Formula: C16H24N2O4).
(S)-tert-Butyl (1-(methoxy(methyl)amino)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl)carbamate (cas: 87694-53-9) belongs to esters. Volatile esters with characteristic odours are used in synthetic flavours, perfumes, and cosmetics. Certain volatile esters are used as solvents for lacquers, paints, and varnishes. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two reactants (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product. Esters are common in organic chemistry and biological materials.COA of Formula: C16H24N2O4
