Transition-Metal-Free Stereoselective and Regioselective Hydroamination of 2-Benzoylethynyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles with Amino Acids

Abstract

A new family of unnatural amino acids possessing a tetrahydroindole moiety is obtained by nucleophilic addition of various amino acids to the triple bond of 2-benzoylethynyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles. The reaction proceeds chemo-, regio- and stereospecifically in the presence of sodium hydroxide to give the Z-isomeric products in 35–72% yields.

Key words

amino acids - 2-benzoylethynyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles - nucleophilic addition - Z-isomers
