Abstract

d,l-Tryptophan reacts with α,β-acetylenic γ-hydroxy nitriles, chemo- and regiospecifically, under mild, green conditions via a hydroamination-type process involving the primary amine group. The hydroxycyanopropanyl substituent of the initial adducts undergoes cyclization to afford a 2,5-dihydro-5-iminofuranyl moiety. Several novel amino acids are obtained in almost quantitative yields (95-98%), which exist in an unusual zwitterionic form where the positive charge is located on the remote nitrogen atom of the imino group of the dihydrofuran ring.

Key words

d,l-tryptophan - α,β-acetylenic γ-hydroxy nitriles - nucleophilic addition - hydroamination - amino acids - 2,5-dihydroiminofurans
