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.
