Enantioselective synthesis and absolute configuration of (-)-1-(benzofuran-2-yl)-2-propylaminopentane ((-)-BPAP), which is a highly potent and selective catecholaminergic activity enhancer (CAE) substance, are described. The synthetic approach consists of the coupling reaction of benzofuran with (R)-N-tosyl-2-propylazirizine or (R)-N-methoxy-N-methylnorvaliamide, followed by appropriate modifications of the resulting coupling products. As the results, (-)-BPAP turned out to have the R configuration, which was finally confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Samples of (X) and (S)-epilachnene [(5Z)-11-propyl-12-azacyclotetradec-5-en olide] were synthesized from (R) and (S)-norvaline. The diastereomeric α-methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetyl amides of these synthetic samples, prepared using (S) α-methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetyl chloride, were well resolved by gas chromatography. Analogous derivatization and gas chromatographic analysis of a sample of epilachnene from the pupal secretion of the coccinellid beetle, Epilachna varivestis, established that the natural product is (S)-epilachnene.
