Asymmetric Mannich synthesis of ?-amino esters by anion-binding catalysis.


ABSTRACT: We report a scalable, one-pot Mannich route to enantioenriched ?-amino esters by direct reaction of ?-chloroglycine ester as a practical imino ester surrogate. The reaction is promoted by a chiral aminothiourea, which is proposed to operate cooperatively by generating an iminium ion by chloride abstraction and an enolate by deprotonation, followed by highly stereoselective C-C bond formation between both reactive intermediates associated non-covalently within the catalyst framework.
