This report describes the synthesis of enantiomerically pure (1S,3S,4R)- and (1S,3R,4R)-3-hydroxy-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-1-carboxylic acids, two new conformationally constrained 4-hydroxyprolines, using a straightforward synthetic route and starting f

A new method is reported for the chirospecific preparation of optically pure 1-carboxy-7-azabicycloheptane amino acids for the generation of peptidomimetics as conformational probes. The method allows for the multigram preparation of these amino acid analogues through use of a thiolactam sulfide contraction and a transannular alkylation sequence as the key C-C bond-forming steps, starting from L-glutamic acid. The route provides access to two common intermediates, 7-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-1-carboxy-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]-3-heptane and (1S,4R)-7-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-1-carboxy-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]-3-heptanon e tert-butyl ester, for elaboration to symmetrical and chiral amino acid homologues, respectively. Decarboxylation of the C-1 carboxy unit of the latter intermediate also demonstrated the applicability of the method for a short, chirospecific preparation of a (+)-epibatidine intermediate, (1S,4R)-7-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-1-carboxy-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]3-hepta none.
