Abstract
(R)-methyl 2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl) amino)-3-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl) thio) propanoate, an key intermediate of the natural product Biotin which is a water-soluble vitamin, involved in an essential part of the metabolic cycle causing catalytic fixation of carbon dioxide in the biosynthesis of fatty acids, sugars, and α-amino acids, was synthesized from L-cystine in overall yield 67% through three steps, which synthesis included esterification, protection of amine and thiol.
This study successfully synthesized (R)-methyl 2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl) amino)-3-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl) thio) propanoate, a key intermediate in biotin production, with 67% overall yield from L-c
