Abstract

An asymmetric synthesis of an orthogonally protected γ-carboxy-l-glutamic acid (L-Gla) is developed featuring a key proline-catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation between Garner’s aldehyde and Meldrum’s acid.

Key words

Garner’s aldehyde - Meldrum’s acid - Knoevenagel condensation - proline-catalyzed
