[formula: see text] Homooligomers of beta-amino acids (S)-3-pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid (PCA) and (S)-nipecotic acid (Nip) were studied by circular dichroism (CD) in methanol. In each series, a profound change in the far-UV CD spectrum was observed from monomer to tetramer, but

3-Carboxy-3,4-dehydropyrrolidine was found to bind with affinity equal to that of glycine in a [3H]strychnine binding assay. Simple substitution of the 1-, 2-, 4-, or 5-position resulted in marked loss of affinity. A decline in affinity was also found upon

A straightforward stereoselective and enantiodivergent cyclization strategy for the construction of γ-lactams is described. The cyclization strategy makes use of chiral malonic esters prepared from enantiomerically enriched monoesters of disubstituted malonic acid. The cyclization occurs with the selective displacement of

7-Azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid 11 was prepared in enantiopure form, and its catalytic potential in the direct aldol reaction between acetone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde was assessed. The bicyclic system was found to be more selective than its monocyclic analogue beta-proline 5b. A comparative

The development of enantioselective anti-selective Mannich-type reactions of aldehydes and ketones with imines catalyzed by 3-pyrrolidinecarboxylic acid and related pyrrolidine derivatives is reported in detail. Both (3R,5R)-5-methyl-3-pyrrolidinecarboxylic acid and (R)-3-pyrrolidinecarboxylic acid efficiently catalyzed the reactions of aldehydes with alpha-imino esters
