A unified stereoselective synthesis of 4-substituted kainoids is reported. Four kainic acid analogues were obtained in 8-11 steps with up to 54% overall yields. Starting from trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline, the sequence enables a late-stage modification of C4 substituents with sp2 nucleophiles. Stereoselective steps include a cerium-promoted nucleophilic addition and a palladium-catalyzed reduction. A 10-step route to acid 21a was also established to enable ready functionalization of the C4 position.

The efficient total syntheses of (+)-methoxyphenylkainic acid (3) and (+)-phenylkainic acid (4) were achieved using a rhodium carbenoid-mediated intermolecular C-H insertion reaction. Complete stereoselective construction of the kainoid skeleton was accom

Benzylic lactone hydrogenolysis and enamide reduction were used to generate protected C-4 aryl substituted kainoid analogues which were deprotected to their corresponding free amino acids. X-ray crystographic data were obtained for the C-4 2-MeOPh- analogue.
Synthesis of new acromelic acid congeners: Novel neuroexcitatory amino acids acting on glutamate receptor

A general synthetic method of acromelic acid congeners was developed. Various C4-substituents of this family was introduced by the substitution reaction of the corresponding tosylate with diaryl copper lithium. Phenyl derivative 11 showed comparable excitatory activity with kainic acid, and o-anisyl derivative 12 had most potent activity in this family.
