Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The optical resolution method of racemic α-trifluoromethyl (αCF3)-amino acids using chiral BINOL esters was developed. Also, we synthesized several chiral phase-transfer catalysts derived from quinidine. Using a chiral phase-transfer catalyst, we synthesized an optically active αCF3-amino acid with 78% ee. We synthesized diastereomeric two peptides Cbz-(L-Leu)2-{(S)- or (R)-CF3-Aib}-(L-Leu)2-OMe, and studied the preferred conformation of peptides using 1H NMR and CD spectra, and also X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
トリフルオロメチル(α-CF3)化された化合物は、医薬品の探索研究において重要である。しかし、光学活性なα-CF3-アミノ酸を導入したペプチドについての研究は限られていた。今回、α-CF3-アミノ酸の光学活性体の合成法を開発し、光学活性な(S)-あるいは(R)-α-CF3-アラニン(SとRは光学活性体の鏡像体を意味する)をL-ロイシン中に導入したペプチドの立体構造を調べたところ、導入する鏡像体によりペプチドC末側の立体構造に違いが見られることが分かった。
