Abstract

A five-step synthesis of marine natural product (2S,5S)-pyrrolidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (1)has been described starting from methyl ester of BOC-protected (S)-proline via stereoselective electrochemical oxidation with introduction of the methoxy group at C₅-position by S_N2-substitution of the cyano group followed by hydrolysis in 13% overall yield.

Keywords

(S)-proline - stereoselective oxidation - (2S,5S)-pyrrolidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid - natural product synthesis
