Synthese und absolute Konfiguration kettenverzweigter, Cimetidin-analoger Thioether / Synthesis and Absolute Configuration of Chain Branched Cimetidine Analogous Thioethers

Abstract

<jats:p>Chain branched Cimetidine analogous thioethers, promising building blocks for the preparation of H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>-histaminergic compounds, were synthetized from chiral aminoalkanethiols. Enantiomerically pure amino acids or aminoalcohols were used as starting materials. In one case, a resolution via neutral and acid di-O-(4-toluoyl)tartrates was achieved in good yields and satisfying enantiomeric excess. The absolute configuration of an ethyl branched compound was determined using X-ray diffraction and anomalous dispersion</jats:p>
