摘要
The first organocatalytic enantioselective Strecker synthesis of alpha-quaternary alpha-trifluoromethylated amino acids has been developed. Employing Takemoto's thiourea catalyst the nucleophilic addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide to trifluoromethyl ketimines affords alpha-amino nitriles in good to excellent yields (50-99%) and very good enantioselectivities (ee - 83-95%). The enantiopure amino nitriles can be obtained by recrystallization. Deprotection and hydrolysis leads to the title amino acids.
