Abstract: The present invention relates to highly enantiomerically pure lactam-substituted propanoic acid derivatives and methods of making and using therefor. The invention involves a multi-step synthesis to produce the lactam compounds. In one step of the reaction sequence, asymmetric hydrogenation of a lactam-enamide was performed to produce an intermediate that can ultimately be converted to a series of pharmaceutical compounds. The invention also contemplates the in situ synthesis of an intermediate of the multi-step synthesis, which provides economic advantages to the overall synthesis of the lactam compounds.

Abstract: A process for producing phosphinopyrrolidine compounds especially useful for preparing optically active compounds through asymmetric synthesis which is a simplified short process requiring neither a step necessitating a high-temperature and high-pressure reaction nor special equipment for production. A phosphino group is incorporated into a pyrrolidine compound in the presence of a boron compound, and the resultant pyrrolidine compound is further reacted while protecting the phosphorous atom, whereby a dicyclohexylphosphino group can be efficiently incorporated into the pyrrolidine nucleus in the 4-position. Thus, the target phosphinopyrrolidine compounds useful as ligands for asymmetric synthesis catalysts can be obtained through a significantly small number of steps without resort to troublesome steps such as the step of reducing a phenyl group at high temperature and high pressure.
