Abstract
The DL-arylamino acid ethyl ester derivatives of beta-(3-pyridyl)-DL-alanine, and beta-(3-benzo[b]thienyl)-DL-alanine were synthesized by diethyl acetamidomalonate condensation with the respective arylmethyl halides followed by partial hydrolysis to the monoethyl ester and decarboxylation. Each derivative was enzymatically resolved to a separable mixture of the corresponding N-acetyl-L-amino acid and the unchanged D amino acid derivative. Acidic hydrolysis of the latter gave the corresponding D-amino acid, the optical purity of which was established by HPLC analysis of the 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate (GITC) derivative. The free D amino acids were converted to D-BOC derivatives by reaction with di-tert-butyldicarbonate in tert-butyl alcohol, water and sodium hydroxide.
