Abstract

A variety of tertiary amides was converted to chromium aminocarbene complexes by reaction with Na 2 Cr(CO) 5 and trimethylsilyl chloride. Photolysis of these carbene complexes in methanol or tert-butyl alcohol solvent produced α-amino esters in good to excellent yield. Aminocarbene complexes containing chiral oxazolidine groups were synthesized and photolyzed in alcohol to produce chiral α-amino esters in 50-93% de
