Application of the molybdenum catalysed hydrostannation towards propargylic esters of amino acids allows for the regioselective synthesis of α-stannylated allylic esters, suitable substrates for chelate Claisen rearrangements. α-Stannylated allylic carbonates can be subjected to palladium catalysed allylic alkylations using chelated amino acid ester enolates as nucleophiles. The stannylated amino acids obtained can be further modified via cross-coupling reactions.
