L. Borjesson et al., SYNTHESIS AND CONFORMATIONAL-ANALYSIS OF 2,9-DISUBSTITUTED 1-OXAQUINOLIZIDINES, Journal of organic chemistry, 60(10), 1995, pp. 2989-2999
The synthesis of l)oxy)pentyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1-oxaquinolizidine (2
9a) from (S)-malic acid, 1,5-pentanediol, and trifluoroacetamide is re
ported. Conformational analysis using molecular mechanics calculations
and NMR spectroscopy of 29 together with X-ray crystallographic analy
sis of (2S,10S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1-oxaquinolizidine (30) are used to
determine the structure and conformational preferences of these 1-oxaq
uinolizidine derivatives.
