Scalable Synthesis of All Stereoisomers of 2-Aminocyclopentanecarboxylic Acid─A Toolbox for Peptide Foldamer Chemistry.

ABSTRACT: Although the construction of peptides with well-defined three-dimensional structures and predictable functions, including biological activity, using conformationally constrained β-amino acids has been shown to be a very successful strategy, their broad application is limited by access to the appropriate building blocks. In particular, trans- and cis-stereoisomers of 2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid (ACPC) are of high interest. The scalable synthesis of all four stereoisomers of Fmoc derivatives of ACPC is presented with NMR-based analysis methods for their enantiomeric purity.
