Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Optically active carboxylic acids are an important synthetic intermediate for pharmaceuticals. Hydrolase-catalyzed asymmetric ester hydrolysis is an important method to access the compounds. However, the methods still have several drawbacks such as low specific activity of the enzymes. Notwithstanding the recent advances in asymmetric catalysis, stereocontrol in ester hydrolysis with synthetic catalysts has also remained a formidable challenge. In this study, we successfully developed phase-transfer catalytic base hydrolysis of N-protected aminoacid esters, which proceeds via dynamic kinetic resolution to provide the corresponding products in moderate to good yields (up to 99%) with up to 96:4 er. In addition, we also succeeded in developing a hydrolytic enantioselective protonation of alkenyl esters with a novel catalyst.
