(Chemical Equation Presented) The selective N-methylation of BOC-protected valine 1a with MeI and NaH in THF (i.e., in the presence of a free carboxyl group) has been attributed to the protection of the carboxylate by chelation to Na+. An alternative mechanism, involving the formation of the carbene intermediate generated from MeI and its insertion into the N-H bond, has been ruled out by isotopic labeling. 2009 American Chemical Society.

Aminobenzaldehydes bearing a pendant 3,5-dinitrophenyl group react thermally with N-substituted α-amino acids to form unprecedented benzoazepine-fused isoindolines. The reaction proceeds via a dearomatization/rearomatization sequence involving an intramolecular (3 + 2)-cycloaddition between the in situ formed azomethine ylide and the dinitroarene. Various glycine derivatives are tolerated as well as branched substrates based on cyclic, α-mono-, and α,α-disubstituted amino acids, giving single diastereomers in many cases. The method is scalable and gives products with a nitro group ready for further manipulation.

Improved, streamlined total syntheses of natural tubulysins such as V (Tb45) and U (Tb46) and pretubulysin D (PTb-D43), and their application to the synthesis of designed tubulysin analogues (Tb44, PTb-D42, PTb-D47-PTb-D49, and Tb50-Tb120), are described.
