The present invention relates to an axially chiral N-(2-acylaryl)-2-[5,7-dihydro-6H-dibenzo[c,e]azepin-6-yl]ac etamide compound and a chirality inversion method of an α-amino acid using the compound as a template. The present invention also relates to a metal complex used as an intermediate for the chirality inversion method, the metal complex having, as a ligand, a condensate of an α-amino acid and an N-(2-acylaryl)-2-[5,7-dihydro-6H-dibenzo[c,e]azepin-6-yl]ac etamide compound.
Optically pure α-amino acids are useful as a building block for designing various physiologically active substances and drugs. Recently, it was found that substances containing, in particular, a D-α-amino acid, which hardly occurs in nature, have unique physiological effects. Therefore, a process for conveniently obtaining an optically pure D-α-amino acid as a raw material is desired. Also, peptides and proteins composed of optically active unnatural synthetic α-amino acids have a more stable higher-order structure and an improved stability against hydrolytic enzymes than naturally occurring ones. Therefore, the importance of such optically active unnatural synthetic α-amino acids in drug development has been increasing, sad the development of a process for conveniently obtaining the optically active α-amino acids is an urgent issue.
As a production method of an optically active α-amino acid, optical resolution of a racemic mixture of an α-amino acid is classically known, and recently a fermentation method or an enzymatic method are known to easily produce L-α-amino acids. Regarding D-α-amino acids, deracemization of a racemic mixture and chirality inversion from an easily obtainable L-α-amino acid have been studied. Reported as examples of the methods are a method using a chiral ligand having an asymmetric carbon atom (see Non Patent Literature 1 etc.), a method using a chiral ligand having axial chirality (see Non Patent Literature 2, Patent Literature 1 and 2, etc.), etc.
However, in each method, there is a problem of generally slow inversion rate. In particular, in cases of amino acids having a sterically-bulky side chain, such as valine and isoleucine, there are problems of extremely slow reaction rate and low optical purity of the obtained product.
Consequently, none of the known methods are industrially satisfactory, and for the reason, the development of an industrially applicable production method of an optically active α-amino acid has been demanded.

The present inventors made efforts to solve the above problems, and as a result, successfully created an N-(2-acylaryl)-2-[5,7-dihydro-6H-dibenzo[c,e]azepin-6-yl]ac etamide compound, which can be used as a template in the chirality inversion of an α-amino acid. By a method the inventors found, an α-amino acid having a desired chirality is obtained in high yield and in a highly enantioselective manner. The method is as follows. An S- or R-form of the acetamide compound is selected as appropriate and condensed with an α-amino acid of which chirality is to be interconverted, and the condensate is made into a metal complex. The metal complex is subsequently heated under basic conditions for chirality interconversion of the α-amino acid moiety, and then subjected to acid treatment to release the chirality-converted α-amino acid as intended. This method is a generally applicable method for interconverting the chirality of an α-amino acid as desired in a simple, inexpensive, and industrially advantageous manner. The present inventors conducted further examination and completed the present invention.

To a methanol suspension (12 mL) of a nickel (II) complex having an L-phenylalanine moiety (0.4 g, 0.52 mmol), 1 N hydrochloric acid (2.6 mL, 5 eq.) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 6 hours. After the end of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated, and the residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL). The organic layer was extracted with 2% aqueous ammonia (6 mL, twice) and water (6 mL, twice) and then washed, with saturated brine (6 mL, twice). The obtained organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, and the sodium sulfate was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated to dryness to give a chiral auxiliary (0.27 g, yield: 90%) as a pale yellow solid.

The reaction mixture was concentrated, the residue was subjected to phase separation with ethyl acetate (18 mL) and 1 N hydrochloric acid (2.5 mL), and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (18 mL). The organic layer was washed with saturated brine (5 mL, twice), dried over sodium sulfate, and then concentrated to give a yellow oily substance (0.182 g). The obtained yellow oily substance was dissolved in isopropyl alcohol (0.08 mL)—ethyl acetate (0.8 mL).

To a methanol suspension (12 mL) of a nickel (II) complex having a D-phenylalanine moiety (0.4 g, 0.53 mmol), 1 N hydrochloric acid (3.2 mL, 6 eq.) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 6 hours. After the end of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated, and the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (20 mL). The organic layer was sequentially extracted with water (4 mL), 1H hydrochloric acid (4 mL), and water (4 mL) , The obtained organic layer was sequentially washed with a saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate aqueous solution (4 mL), water (4 mL), and saturated brine (4 mL), and then dried over sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness to give a chiral auxiliary (0.29 g, yield; 96%) as a pale yellow solid.
Meanwhile, the aqueous layer resulting from the extraction (12 mL) was concentrated to dryness. The obtained solid was dissolved in 13% aqueous ammonia (4 mL) and passed through a cation exchange resin column (made by Mitsubishi Chemical Corp., trade name: SK1B, 30 mL, eluent: water and subsequently aqueous ammonia (8%)) to give phenylalanine (0.102 g, crude product, quantitative).
To the phenylalanine (0.102 g), an aqueous solution (3 mL) of sodium hydrogencarbonate (0.090 mg, 2 eq.)—sodium carbonate (0.057 mg, 1 eq.), and acetone (1 mL) were added to dissolve the phenylalanine. To the solution in an ice bath, an acetone solution (2 mL) of N-benzyloxycarbonyloxy succinimide (0.139 g, 1.04 eq.) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the residue was subjected to phase separation with water (17 mL) and toluene (1 mL). To the aqueous layer, a 10% aqueous solution of citric acid was added to adjust the pH to 3, and then extraction with ethyl acetate (30 mL, 15 mL) was performed. The organic layers were washed with water (2 mL) and saturated brine (2 mL, 3 times), dried over sodium sulfate, and then concentrated to give a yellow oily substance (0.161 g, crude product, quantitative).

To this, an ethyl acetate solution (0.1 mL) of dicyclohexylamine (0.097 g, 1 eq.) was added, and then ethyl acetate (0.9 mL) and hexane (3 mL) were further added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The precipitated crystals were separated by filtration, and then vacuum-dried at 50° C. to give a Z-D-phenylalanine DCHA salt (0.247 g, yield: 96%, 99.0% ee, abbreviated as Z-Phe) as white crystals.

After the end of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated, and the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (10 mL). The organic layer was sequentially extracted with water (10 mL, 5 mL, 5 mL). The obtained organic layer was sequentially washed with a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate aqueous solution (5 mL), water (5 mL), and saturated brine (5 mL), and then dried over sodium sulfate.

To the D-lysine (0.034 g), an aqueous solution (1 mL) of sodium hydrogencarbonate (0.079 mg, 4 eq.)—sodium carbonate (0.050 mg, 2 eq.), and THF (1 mL) were added to dissolve the lysine. To the solution in an ice bath, a THF solution (2.5 mL) of N-benzyloxycarbonyloxy succinimide (0.118 g, 2 eq.) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the obtained residue was subjected to phase separation with water (10 mL) and toluene (1 mL). To the aqueous layer, a 10% aqueous solution of citric acid was added to adjust the pH to 3, and then extraction with ethyl acetate (15 mL, 10 mL, 5 ml) was performed.

According to the present invention, by using an appropriately selected optical isomer of a novel N—(2-acylaryl) -2-[5,7-dihydro-6H-dibenzo[c,e]azepin-6-yl]ac etamide compound as a chiral template, the chirality of an α-amino acid can be interconverted to give an α-amino acid having a desired chirality in high yield and in a highly enantioselective manner. In particular, the present invention is useful for the production of an optically active unnatural α-amino acid.
