New synthesis of L-2-amino-3-oxalylaminopropionic acid, the Lathyrus sativus neurotoxin

Abstract: A solution of 3 (0.5 g, 2.3 mmol) in 5 ml of diluted H2SO4 was heated at 50°for 30 min. The solution was neutralized with NaaCOs and extracted with EtOAc. Evaporation of the solvent gave a residue which was recrystallized from EtOH (0.27 g, 66%): mp 169-171°; uv (95% ethanol) Xmax 247 and 372 nm (t 14700 and 5600); ir (Nujol) 1685 cm"1 (C=0).

“…Treatment of 3a with metallic sodium in liquid ammonia induced complete degradation of the starting material. Similarly, heating of 3a at 70 °C in an acetic acid solution containing HBr for 8 h resulted in complete decomposition of 3a 37. When 3a was treated with LiAlH 4 in THF (reflux, 8 h),38 N–S bond cleavage occurred, but the alkoxysilane functionality was also totally unmasked, which led to β‐amino alcohol 4 in 70 % yield (Scheme ).…”

“…Having defined the stereochemistry of allylated aspartate 10 unambiguously, we converted it into diacid 18 by sequential reaction with TFA and then LiOH in aqueous methanol. Unfortunately, all efforts to remove the N-protecting group, such as reaction with 48% HBr in acetic acid, failed to give products that were easily separable, presumably due to side-reactions involving the double bond. Removal of the N -carbobenzoxy protecting group, however, under standard catalytic hydrogen transfer conditions, proceeded with concomitant reduction of the double bond to give 3- n -propyl aspartate 19 (Scheme ) …”

“…We then considered the methods used for deprotection of the N ‐SO 2 Ph group (see the Supporting Information for details). Regarding the acetic acid solution containing HBr, the N–S bond cleavage occurred and 10b was isolated with a yield of 70 %. Adding phenol (5.0 equiv.)…”
