N(alpha),N(alpha)-Dimethylalanine Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

A mixture of L-alanine (2.5 g, 28 mmol), formaldehyde (8.4 g, 37 wt. percent), 1N HCl (30 mL) and 10percent Pd/C (500mg) in methanol (30 mL) was stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere (50 psi) for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was filteredthrough diatomaceous earth (Celite®) and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to provide the HCl salt of Cap-13 asan oil which solidified upon standing under vacuum (4.4 g; the mass is above theoretical yield). The product was usedwithout further purification. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, δ=2.5, 500 MHz) δ 12.1 (br s, 1H), 4.06 (q, J=7.4, 1H), 2.76 (s, 6H), 1.46(d, J=7.3, 3H).

Uses

N,N-Dimethylalanine has been used as a reactant in the synthesis of Aplyronine A, a potent antitumor substance of marine origin.
