Bioorg Med Chem. 2005 Dec 1;13(23):6556-70. doi: 10.1016/j.bmc.2005.07.036. Epub 2005 Sep 8.

Abstract

The synthesis of a series of C3'-cis-substituted carboxycyclopropyl glycines bearing a wide variety of functional groups is described, and the structure-activity relationship for this series as agonists of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors is reported.
