An enantioselective route to four tricyclic amino acids and N-tosylamides, composed of a central norbornane framework with a 2-endo,3-endo-annelated pyrrolidine ring and a 5-endo-C1 or -C2 side chain, has been developed. A key intermediate was the chiral, N-Boc-protected ketone (1R,2S,6S,7R)-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]decan-8-one, available from inexpensive endo-carbic anhydride in five steps and 47% yield. The rigid scaffold makes these amino acid derivatives promising candidates for β-turn-inducing building blocks in peptidomimetics and for chiral auxiliaries in asymmetric organocatalysis.

A new highly enantioselective route to α-alkenyl α-amino acid derivatives using a N–H insertion reaction of vinyldiazoacetates and tert-butyl carbamate cooperatively catalyzed by achiral dirhodium(ii) carboxylates and chiral spiro phosphoric acids was developed.

N-Methyl β-amino acids are potentially useful amino acid derivatives for incorporation in lead peptide therapeutics. The syntheses of five such compounds are presented. Their synthesis via 6-oxazinanones was low yielding. Alternatively, reductive cleavage of a 5-oxazolidinone gave the N-methyl α-amino acid, which was then homologated via an Arndt–Eistert procedure in high yield to give the N-methyl β-amino acid.

The effects of intravenous infusions of a variety of neutral and acidic amino acids on the plasma concentrations and excretions of naturally occurring amino acids were studied in dogs. Conventional clearance techniques were used, and the amino acid concentrations were determined by ion exchange column chromatography. Infusion of either l-glutamic acid or l-aspartic acid caused a gross increase in the plasma concentration and excretion of the other. Infusions of neutral amino acids including glycine, l-alanine, l-leucine, l-methionine, l-proline, and l-phenylalanine caused some minor changes in the endogenous plasma amino acid concentrations. They produced increases in the excretion of other neutral amino acids and, in some cases, of acidic and basic amino acids as well. In general, amino acids with long side chains were most effective in inhibiting reabsorption while cyclic side-chain compounds were less effective. There appear to be at least three somewhat separable mechanisms for renal tubular reabsorption of amino acids in dogs.
