Ru(OCOCH3)2((S)-segphos)(45.0 mg, 0.543 mmol), methyl 2-(2-thenoyl)acetate (1.00 g, 5.428 mmol), ammonium acetate (0.418 g, 5.428 mmol) and methanol (5 mL) were placed in a 2.5 mL-stainless autoclave under atmosphere of nitrogen, and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature and further stirred under a hydrogen pressure of 3 MPa at 80° C. for 15 hours. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by evaporation in vacuo and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (eluent hexane ethyl acetate/triethylamine=50/50/5) to give methyl (+)-3-amino-3-thiophen-2-yl-propionate (270 mg) as a colorless oil in 26.8% yield. The resulting methyl (+)-3-amino-3-thiophen-2-yl-propionate was converted into methyl 3-(4-nitrobenzoylamino)-3-thiophen-2-yl-propionate, and the enantiomeric excess of the product was found to be 95.7% ee by HPLC analysis using a SUMICHIRAL OA-4100 column (available from SUMIKA CHEMICAL ANALYSIS SERVICE LTD.).
