8. The C@C bond geometry of (Z)- and (E)-8, which
appeared as single isomers at the C@N bond, was
determined by NMR, measuring the vicinal heteronuclear
coupling constant MeO2CC@CH [J = 9.3 Hz for (E)-8,
4.3 Hz for (Z)-8].
efficient crystallisation of an intermediate as single
stereoisomer allowing access to the final compound in
high purity and ee. Multigram amounts of 1 could be
obtained via this route. An alternative strategy
employing a chiral starting material led to products of
low optical purity but allowed the assignment of the
configuration of the stereogenic centre of 1.
9. Samples of 6 obtained from the two alternative routes
proved to have identical properties and the regiochemistry
of the alkylation was assigned at N1 rather than at N3 by
1H–13C-HMBC analysis as CH2N correlates with C6@O.
