Abstract
Benzylzinc reagent reacted with α-imino ester (2) at the α-carbon exclusively, though other organometallic reagents such as Mg. Al, Cu, Tl, and B derivatives reacted at the nitrogen atom. Use of the (S)-amine as a chiral auxiliary of 2 created the R chirality at the imino carbon. Very high chiral Induction was realized In the reaction of prenylzinc reagent wlih α-imino 8-(-)phenylmenthyl ester (10). The reaction of 2 with heteroatom substituted allylic organometalic compounds (15) gave the corresponding α-heterostom substituted amino acid derivatives (16). Here again, the allylic zinc reagent gave the adduct in higher yield than the corresponding Tl, Al, and B reagents.
