Conclusions

  1. 1.

    In the reaction of 4-isopropylideneoxazolones with S-(-)-α-phenylethylamine and hydrogen in the presence of a Pd catalyst in dimethoxyethane,α-phenylethylamide of N-benzoyl- or N-acetylvaline is obtained, preferentially in the SS-configuration, the N-acetyl derivative being formed with a higher stereoselectivity.

  2. 2.

    The reductive aminolysis process proceeds in the sphere of the catalytic complex, bypassing the stages of the formation of both unsaturated amide and saturated azlactone.
