Notes:
Two α-amino acids containing the 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane (12) cage, namely, 5-(1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran (12)-1-yl)-2-aminopentanoic acid (1) and 5-(2-methyl-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran (12)-1-yl)-2-aminopentanoic acid (2), were prepared by asymmetric synthesis (e.p. 〉 98%) by using the chiral glycine equivalent, imidazolidinone 3, introduced by Seebach, and Oppolzer's camphor-derived sultam derivative 4. The dextrorotatory enantiomers (sodium D line in methanol) of the amino acids 1 and 2 were both shown to have (S) configuration.
