Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)cyclopropane carboxylic acids: key intermediates for H3 histamine receptor ligands

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2002 Dec 16;12(24):3561-3. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(02)00793-x.

Abstract

A new synthetic methodology to provide cis-2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)-cyclopropane carboxylic acids is described. These cyclopropanes are useful for the preparation of novel H(3) receptor agents.
