The present invention relates to a process for the efficient preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivatives which are useful in the asymmetric synthesis of biologically active molecules. The process comprises an enantioselective hydrogenation of a prochiral beta amino acrylic acid derivative substrate in the presence of an ammonium salt and a transition metal precursor complexed with a chiral ferrocenyl diphosphine ligand.
Description
PROCESS TO CHIRAL BETA AMINO ACID DERIVATIVES BY ASYMMETRIC
HYDROGENATION
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process for the efficient preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivatives which are useful in the asymmetric synthesis of biologically active molecules. The process comprises an enantioselective hydrogenation of a prochiral beta-amino acrylic acid derivative substrate in the presence of an ammonium salt and a transition metal precursor complexed with a chiral ferrocenyl diphosphine ligand.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides an efficient process for the preparation of an enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivative of structural formula I:
Rl*~Z
having the (R)- or (S)-configuration at the stereogenic center marked with an *; wherein Z is OR2, SRZ, or NR2R3;
Rl is C 1-8 alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, aryl-C 1-2 alkyl, or heteroaryl-C 1-2 alkyl;
R2 and R3 are each independently hydrogen, C 1-8 alkyl, aryl, or aryl-C 1-2 alkyl; or R2 and R3 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 4- to 7-membered heterocyclic ring system optionally containing an additional heteroatom selected from 0, S, and NC1-4 alkyl, said heterocyclic ring system being optionally fused with a 5- to 6-membered saturated or aromatic carbocyclic ring system or a 5- to 6-membered saturated or aromatic heterocyclic ring system containing one to two heteroatoms selected from 0, S, and NC1-4 alkyl, said fused ring system being unsubstituted or substituted with one to two substituents independently selected from hydroxy, amino, fluoro, C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 alkoxy, and trifluoromethyl.
The process of the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of chiral beta amino acid derivatives of structural formula I in an efficient enantioselective fashion via transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a prochiral enamine of structural formula II:
R~' Z
(II) wherein the amino group is unprotected, in the presence of an ammonium salt and a transition metal precursor complexed to a chiral ferrocenyl diphosphine ligand.
Methods for asymmetrically reducing enamine carbon-carbon double bonds (C=C-N) using chiral ferrocenyl diphosphines as ligands complexed to a rhodium or iridium precursor have been described in the patent literature (See U.S. Patent No. 5,563,309 issued Oct.
8, 1996 to Ciba-Geigy Corp.
and the related family of patents and patent applications). A related approach to N-acylated beta amino acids using a rhodium Me-DuPHOS catalytic complex has also published (U.S.
2002/0128509 published on Sept. 12, 2002 assigned to Degussa AG). The following publications also describe the asymmetric hydrogenation of N-acylated beta-amino acrylic acids with rhodium metal precursors complexed to a chiral phosphine ligand: (1) T. Hayashi, et al., Bull. Chem. Soc. Japan, 53:
1136-1151 (1980); (2) G. Zhu et al., J. Org. Chem., 64: 6907-6910 (1999); and (3) W. D. Lubell, et al., Tetrahedron: Asyminetry, 2:
543-554 (1991). In these publications all the examples provided have the amino group in the beta amino acrylic acid derivative substrate protected as an acetamide derivative. The requirement for amine protection introduces two additional chemical steps into the sequence, namely protection and deprotection, and the synthesis of the protected substrate may also be difficult. The process of the present invention circumvents the need for protecting the primary amino group in the substrate for the asymmetric hydrogenation reaction and proceeds with excellent reactivity and enantioselectivity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is concerned with a process for the preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivatives of structural formula I. The process utilizes an asymmetric hydrogenation of a prochiral beta amino acrylic acid derivative, wherein the primary amino group is unprotected, in the presence of an ammonium salt and a transition metal precursor complexed with a chiral ferrocenyl diphosphine ligand. The process of the present invention is applicable to the preparation of beta amino acid derivatives on a pilot plant or industrial scale. The beta amino acids are useful to prepare a wide variety of biologically active molecules.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides an efficient process for the preparation of an enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivative of structural formula I:

The requirement for amine protection introduces two additional chemical steps into the sequence, namely protection and deprotection, and the synthesis of the protected substrate may also be difficult. The process of the present invention circumvents the need for protecting the primary amino group in the substrate for the asymmetric hydrogenation reaction and proceeds with excellent reactivity and enantioselectivity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is concerned with a process for the preparation of enantiomerically enriched beta amino acid derivatives of structural formula I. The process utilizes an asymmetric hydrogenation of a prochiral beta amino acrylic acid derivative, wherein the primary amino group is unprotected, in the presence of an ammonium salt and a transition metal precursor complexed with a chiral ferrocenyl diphosphine ligand. The process of the present invention is applicable to the preparation of beta amino acid derivatives on a pilot plant or industrial scale. The beta amino acids are useful to prepare a wide variety of biologically active molecules.

After separation of the layers, 3NNaOH (35 mL) was added to the water layer, which was then extracted with MTBE (180 mL + 100 mL). The MTBE solution was concentrated and solvent switched to hot toluene (180 mL, about 75 C). The hot toluene solution was then allowed to cool to 0 C slowly (5 - 10 h). The crystals were isolated by filtration (98 - 99% ee); m.p. 114.1 - 115.7 C.
