A synthetic route to (2S,3S)-3-hydroxypipecolic acid was achieved from readily available nonchiral pool starting material cis-2-butene-1,4-diol and involved Claisen orthoester rearrangement, Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation and intramolecular lactamisation of azido lactone as the key steps.

A new method is reported for the preparation of enantiomerically pure (1R,2S,4S)-1-amino-2-hydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentane, (1R,2R,4S)-1-amino-2-fluoro-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentane, and (1R,4S)-1-amino-4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-cyclopentene, advanced precursors to carbocyclic nucleosides.The method involves initial conversion of D-serine into an aldehyde with 9-phenylfluorenyl protection at nitrogen and O-benzyl protection at oxygen.A -coupling of this aldehyde with a titanium homoenolate derived from tert-butyl 3-iodopropionate gave the corresponding anti-lactone in high yield.Regioselective hydrogenolysis of the amine protecting group, accompanied by intramolecular O- to N-cyclization formed a lactam.After suitable nitrogen protection and functional group manipulation, transannular alkylation afforded the corresponding 2-benzyl- or 2-(p-methoxybenzyl)-6-hydroxy-2-azabicyclo-3-heptanone.Functional group modification of the 2-benzyl analogue gave the resulting 6(S)-hydroxy and 6(R)-fluoro N-BOC imides; alternatively, the 2-(p-methoxybenzyl) analogue was converted to an N-BOC imide containing an olefinic linkage at C-5 and C-6 of the bicycle.Subjecting each of the N-BOC imides to a reduction-deprotection sequence than afforded the desired carbocyclic analogues.The -coupling method also allowed improved and expedient access to an advanced tribenzylated lactam previously used in the racemic syntheses of the hydroxylated alkaloids D-mannonolactam, deoxymannojirimycin, and prosopinone, providing a formal asymmetric synthesis of these alkaloids.
