Abstract
The title aminomethyl (5) and amino (6) alcohols, which are of interes t as intermediates in the synthesis of carbocyclic analogues of nucleo sides. were prepared from (+)-camphoric acid via methyl (1S,3R)-3-carb aoyl-2.3.3-trimethylcyclopentane carboxylate (8). Direct reduction of 8 gave 5 in 26% yield. Amino alcohol 6 was prepared in 11-53% overall yields by several approaches, each involving oxidative degradation of 8 followed by a reduction step.
