α-Amino acid esters can be added to a carbonyl ligand of [CpFe(CO)3]+CF3SO3- to give the carbamoyl complexes Cp(OC)2Fe-C(O)NHCHRCO2R′ (R = H, Me, CHMe2, CH2Ph; R′ = Et, Me). This type of reaction may be useful for the marking of peptides at the amino end. The crystal structure of Cp(OC)2Fe-C(O)NHCH2CO2Et was determined by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract Formation of di- and triglycine ethylester which were determined by HPLC after derivatisation with dansyl chloride was observed in medium to high yields from CH2Cl2 solutions of glycine ethylester in the presence of metal triflates and metal chlorides: FeCl3 (yield 82%), AlCl3 (73%), GdCl3 (56%), La(OTf)3 (59%), Sc(OTf)3 (55%), ZrCl4 (62%), HfCl4 (60%), VOCl3 (43%), TaCl5 (29%). Esters of higher α-amino acid esters (AlaOMe, PheOMe) gave lower yields in peptide formation.

A variety of transition metal complexes of a-amino acid esters have been synthesized, and characterized by analysis, conductivity measurements, and infrared spectra. The complexes can be broadly divided into two groups: (a) complexes in which only a metal-nitrogen bond occurs with the α-amino group of the ester, and (b) complexes in which chelate ring formation occurs via secondary donor groups on the ligand. These latter complexes are found with methyl L-histidinate, methyl γ-glutamate, and methyl L-cysteinate. With the exception of a methyl tryptophanate complex, the infrared spectra show that there is no interaction between the carbonyl group of the ester and the metal ion. The visible spectra of aqueous solutions of the esters and copper(II) at a ligand/metal ratio of 5 : 1 have maxima in the 600-650 mμ range at pH 7 consistent with copper-nitrogen bonding only.
