Mannich-rype reactions of secondary amines, aldehydes and ketene silyl acetals
were efficiently promoted by catalytic amounts of diarylborinic acid esters,
affording β-amino esters selectively with no formation of the corresponding
β-hydroxy esters.

Aminoboranes are highly efficient and mild iminium ion generators in the
Mannich-type aminative coupling of aldehydes with silyl ketene acetals. The
use of diisopropylaminoboranes enables a three-component Mannich reaction of
free secondary amines with aldehydes and silyl ketene acetals.

or a ketene silyl acetal with an N,O-acetal allows the preparation of

bis(trimethylsilyl)amino group directly produced N-unprotected aspartic acid
derivatives after a standard aqueous workup.

using capillary zone electrophoresis. No substantial epimerization occured
except for phenylglycine.
