Abstract
Rapid and efficient C(4)-alkylation of 4-alkyloxazol-5(4H)-ones has been achieved by the utilization of BEMP as base. 4,4-Dialkyloxazol-5(4H)-ones, which can easily be hydrolyzed into free alpha,alpha-dialkyl-alpha-amino acids, were obtained in high yields (up to 99%) within a few minutes (1-18 min). BEMP, a sterically hindered strong base with low nucleophilicity facilitated the desired reaction, while decreasing the rate of side reactions such as O-alkylation, C(2)-alkylation and the breakage of oxazolone.
