Abstract
A novel copper-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction of N-aryl α-amino acid esters with nitroalkanes to give β-nitro α-amino acid esters was developed. Various N-aryl α-amino acid esters reacted smoothly with nitroalkanes to give the desired coupling products in moderate to good yields. The method uses a cheap and simple copper salt as a catalyst and molecular oxygen as an environmentally benign oxidant. A possible mechanism for the dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction is proposed.

- 8 β-Nitro α-Amino Acid Esters 3; General Procedure Et3N (2.0 mg, 0.02 mmol) was added to a mixture of CuI (3.8 mg, 0.02 mmol), the appropriate N-aryl glycine ester 1 (0.2 mmol), and nitroalkane 2 (2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (1 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 30 °C under O2 (1 atm) for 24 h. When the reaction was complete, the mixture was concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, PE–EtOAc).
