The synthesis of several cyclic amino acids that have all the necessary structural features to make them ideal scaffolds for use in medicinal chemistry is described. A key step in each synthesis is the use of hydrolase enzymes to define a chiral centre. I
Highly selective directed hydrogenation of enantiopure 4-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)cyclopent-1-enecarboxylic acid methyl esters

The use of both N-tert-butoxycarbonylamino- and hydroxyl-directed hydrogenation methodology to yield essentially single diastereomers of 3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-4-hydroxycyclopentanecarboxylic acid methyl esters and 3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)cyclopentanecarboxylic acid methyl esters is described. These results incorporate the first reported carbamate-directed hydrogenations of functionalised cyclopentenes.
