General description

(S)-(+)-2-(Aminomethyl)pyrrolidine is a chiral vicinal diamine.

Application

(S)-(+)-2-(Aminomethyl)pyrrolidine can be used as an organocatalyst:
  • For the asymmetric transformation of (S)-alanine.
  • In the asymmetric α-fluorination of linear and branched aldehydes using N-fluorobenzenesulfonamide as the fluorinating agent.

It can also be used as a reactant to prepare Schiff base metal complexes with pyrrolidine fragment as a ligand in asymmetric synthesis.
Used in the synthesis of compounds with antitumor activity.

The optical isomers of 2-aminomethylpyrrolidine(1,1-cyclobutane- dicarboxylato)platinum(II) (DWA2114, 1), which has potent antitumor activity against various tumors, were synthesized. They were examined for antitumor activity against Colon 26 carcinoma in a sc-iv system, and changes in urinary protein and sugar levels
