A Simple Approach to Amino Acids with a Diazo Function in the Side Chain Starting from Aspartic Acid [2,2-Bis(trifluoromethyl)-5-oxo-1,3-oxazolidin-4-yl]acetic acid chloride (2) and diazoalkanes react to give the amino acid derivatives 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4-(3-diazo-2-oxopropyl)-1,3-oxazolidin-5-ones 3. Compounds 3 are useful intermediates for the synthesis of various natural and nonnatural α-amino acids and their derivatives. The synthetic potential is demonstrated i.a. by syntheses of 2-amino-5-hydroxy-4-oxopentanoic acid and 2-amino-4-oxohexanoic acid derivatives.
