Stereoselective synthesis of new conformationally restricted analogues of a potent CGRP receptor antagonist

Org Lett. 2005 Jun 9;7(12):2465-8. doi: 10.1021/ol0510062.

Abstract

[structures: see text] A stereocontrolled racemic synthesis of conformationally restricted analogues 2a and 2b of a potent CGRP receptor antagonist 1 by novel functionalization of 2-substituted octahydropyrido[1,2-a]pyrazin-6-ones is described. The new diastereoselective LDA-promoted alpha-nitration of intermediate lactams established the required trans-configuration in the desired products.
