Abstract

Methods useful for both laboratory and large-scale syntheses of the ACE inhibitors enalapril and lisinopril are described. The requisite dipeptides L-alanyl-L-proline and W- (trifluoroacety1)-L-lysyl-L-proline were prepared via N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) chemistry. These dipeptides undergo facile reductive alkylation with ethyl 2-oxo-4-phenylbutyrate over Raney nickel with high stereoinduction to afford the direct precursors of enalapril maleate ...
