Abstract
2-(((3R,4R)-4-(Allyloxy)-1-benzylpyrrolidin-3-yl)methyl)-6-(2,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-4-methylpyridine (2), a key intermediate for the preparation of novel neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) inhibitors, is synthesized using diisopropyl (R)-(+)-malate as the starting material. The key steps involve a Frater-Seebach diastereoselective alkylation and a fast intramolecular cyclization.Entities:
