METHODS FOR PRACTICAL SYNTHESIS OF DEUTERATED AMINO ACIDS

摘要

Disclosed are a deuterated compound of fomula (I), or a salt thereof, and methods for preparation thereof. The present disclosure may provide a mild, versatile organophotoredox method for the preparation of diverse, enantioenriched α-deuterated α-amino acids. In particular, the present disclosure may address the long-standing challenge of installing sterically demanding side chains into α-amino acids, including late-stage modifications on medicinal agents and natural products.
