Fremgangsmåde til beta-hydroxy-alfa-aminosyrer

摘要

beta -Hydroxy- alpha -amino acids are obtained via serine hydroxymethyltransferase catalyzed condensation of aldehydes with glycine. The predominant product with most aldehydes is the L-erythro diastereomer. For example, succinic semialdehyde methyl ester is condensed with glycine in the process to provide L-erythro alpha -amino- beta -hydroxy adipic acid mono methyl ester.
