Abstract
Asymmetric syntheses of (2R,4S)-4-amino-4-carboxy-2-methylpyrrolidine (1) and (2R,4S)-4-amino-4-carboxy-2-ethylpyrrolidine (2) as 2-alkyl-su bstituted (-)-cucurbitine analogues, have been achieved without distur bing C-2 stereogenic center through a route including a diastereoselec tive Bucherer-Bergs reaction of 2-methyl- and 2-ethenyl-4-oxopyrrolidi nes (10) and (24), easily derived from trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline.
