    Abstract:
    [reaction: see text] Azabicyclo[X.Y.0]alkane amino acids are rigid dipeptide mimetics that are useful tools for structure-activity studies in peptide-based drug discovery. Herein, we report an efficient synthesis of three diastereomers of 9-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-oxo-3-(N-tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-1-azabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane (3S,6S,9S, 3S,6R,9R, and 3S,6R,9S). Methyl N-Boc-pyroglutamate is cleaved with vinylmagnesium bromide to produce an acyclic gamma-vinyl ketone. Michael addition of N-diphenylmethyleneglycine tert-butyl ester produces the N-Boc-delta-oxo-alpha,omega-diaminoazelate intermediate, which, on hydrogenloysis, gives the fused ring system. Acidolytic deprotection followed by Fmoc-protection provided building blocks suitable for solid-phase synthesis.
