Abstract
The reactivity of both the ester and amine functions present in β-amino esters was tested in order to obtain the synthesis of enantiopure αvβ3 and α5β1 integrin ligands. CaLB successfully catalyzed both the enantioselective transesterification and the N-acylation of racemic β-amino esters, allowing the isolation of intermediates for the preparation of Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) mimetic compounds. In particular, a CaLB-catalyzed amidation reaction with unprotected p-aminobenzylamine reduced the number of synthetic steps, thus avoiding protection and deprotection of the intermediate compounds. Following this procedure, RGD mimetics were isolated with high yields and enantiomeric purities.
