Abstract
Abstract: Two complementary approaches to the asymmetric synthesis of a-amino acids have been achieved. In the initially investigated reaction sequence, the diastereoselective bromination of the illustrated boron enolate with N-bromosuccinimide was followed by stereospecific azide displacement by tetramethylguanidinium azide. The resulting a-azido carboximides may be readily purified to high diastereomeric purity by chromatography on ...
