摘要

Gamma-fluorinated analogues of glutamic acid and glutamine are compounds of biological interest. Syntheses of such compounds are extensively reviewed in this article. 4-fluoroglutamic acid was prepared as a mixture of racemic diastereomers by Michael reaction, inverse-Michael reaction or by electrophilic / nucleophilic fluorination. Optically enriched 4-fluoroglutamic acids were obtained by several resolution techniques as well as by asymmetric methodologies using the chiral pool. 4-fluoroglutamine was prepared as a mixture of stereoisomers as well as in racemic erythro and threo forms from the corresponding 4-fluoroglutamic acids using aminolysis and conventional protection and deprotection strategies. Racemic 4,4-difluoroglutamic acid was synthesized by a nitroaldol reaction and its L-enantiomer obtained via three different asymmetric routes. Racemic 4,4-difluoroglutamic acid was converted into the corresponding 4,4-difluoroglutamine using a protection / aminolysis / deprotection sequence while N-Boc-L-4,4-difluoroglutamine was prepared directly from (R)-Garner's aldehyde using a Reformatsky reaction as the key step.
