Reaction of organolead triacetates with4-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-5-one. The synthesis ofα-aryl- and α-vinyl-N-acetylglycines andtheir ethyl esters and their enzymic resolution

Abstract

4-Ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-5-one 7, which may be readily obtained from diethyl acetamidomalonate, undergoes high-yielding arylation and vinylation at the 4-position with organolead triacetates to give compounds which may be hydrolysed to give either the α-aryl- or α-vinyl-N-acetylglycine or the corresponding ethyl ester. The kinetic resolution of a number of these derivatives by enzymic hydrolysis of either the amide or ester function has been demonstrated.
