Abstract
The enantiomerically enriched BOC-protected (4-pinacolylborono)phenylalanine methyl ester (8) is produced via enzymatic resolution of the racemic material, or direct synthesis from the corresponding iodide (or triflate), and undergoes Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions with aromatic halides and triflates in the presence of catalytic amounts of PdCl2(dppf) to produce enantiomerically enriched 4-substituted phenylalanine derivatives.
