Abstract:
An efficient and practical protocol for the synthesis of Amadori ketoses N-(1-deoxy-D-fructose-1-yl) amino acid (amino acid=L-valine (1), L-leucine (2), L-isoleucine (3), L-tryptophan (4), L-phenylalanine (5), L-arginine (6) has been accomplished by employing ZnCl2 as a catalyst. The developed method circumvents protection and deprotection steps as well as tedious ion-exchange and column chromatographic techniques. The accomplished Amadori ketoses showed moderate to weak angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity.

As the self-condensation of ketones is generally not favored in basic conditions, the self-condensed products do not form in the reaction between ketones and benzaldehyde. The general reaction of Claisen–Schmidt...

Preparation of Amides
The DCC-promoted synthesis of amides begins with the protonation of DCC by carboxylic acid. The protonation makes it a better acceptor. Next, the addition of carboxylate to the protonated carbodiimide gives a reactive acylating agent.
Subsequently, the amine acts as a nucleophile that attacks the acylating agent to form a tetrahedral intermediate. In the...
