Synthesis of L-quisqualic acid: a general method for enantio-efficient synthesis of β-aminoalanine derivatives

Abstract

A general method for the enantio-efficient synthesis of β-aminoalanine derivatives, which involves intramolecular transfer of the amino substituent from the αcarboxy to the β-carbon atom via an azetidinone is described with its application to an efficient synthesis of the neuroexcitatory quisqualic acid in an optically pure state.
