33 Summary<br />

The Cbz OB0 ester protected serine aldehyde 3.42 can be used to synthesize<br />

vinylglycine in high yields (5 1% over three steps). Unfortunately some racemization<br />

occurs in the case <strong>of</strong> Takai olefination, presumably dunng the methylenaiion reaction<br />

since the vinylglycine is known to be stable during acid hydrolysis as indicated during the<br />

deprotection <strong>of</strong> the B-hydroxy silane 3.45. However, the cause <strong>of</strong> racemization is<br />

currentl y unknown. S imultaneous deprotection <strong>of</strong> the $-h ydroxyalky Isilane 3.45<br />

generates vinylglycine in 5396 overall yield <strong>and</strong> high ee (>95%) <strong>and</strong> is comparable to<br />

other methods used to synthesize vinylglycine.
